The cardinal dressed
In the reddest of feathers
Proud of his color...

reddest rose hips sway
full in pink spring breeze -
bumble bees swarm

Impassioned like earth’s reddest rose,
I dress in gown of spring,
to wrap in sunlight, I suppose,
with buds of silk, to bring.
No savage thorns to sting....

companion of night
in the epoch of gold stars
moon soliloquies

lily reddest red
just green steps from my back door
moonlight on the floor

beautiful dreamer
in the silence of shadows
where the warm wind blows...

To every mother under the sun
I hope today brings you lots of fun
With lots of love and kisses galore
From all the children that you bore.
The reddest roses and chocolates too 
but most of all I hope you
 hear the words ,MUM, I LOVE YOU....

The reddest rose is invisible in a crowded bloom.
It grows all to soon as wilted matter resumes.
Saddened to harvest, but picked solemnly last, it repeats its self in the past.
No one sees the beauty it weighs or traces of morning mystic dew that stays....

Think of the greenest meadows beneath towering mountains,
think of the whitest peaks piercing the dazzling clouds,
think of the reddest lilies swaying...that's my adored flag! *

A love had suddenly bloomed;
In the summer
It had come to soon

Made from the reddest petals;
It had its beauty
But was something typical

How time grew the thorns;
What exists
Must be ended, love forlorn

The Rose had then wilted;
Love carried by the wind
As summer had finally ended

In glory of sunset my Saviour appeared
my knight in shining armour
In reddest of sky 
the purest white heart
of a face of a Saviour
So timely and true 
I knew it was you
as you looked from 
the Heavens with Love
And poured out your Spirit
and Light that came with it
all Peace spilled on Earth from above...

I saw the reddest redbird
Bathing 'neath an old oak tree
I must admit, he looked absurd
No shame nor modesty

He splashed and sang the sweetest song
How lovingly he'd croon
Another came to sing along 
"It was, a fetching tune"

Even though the bath was shady
One might say remote
I knew she was a lady
When she bathed in her brown coat....

Before you came in my life 
Consumed by stress, torn by strife. 

Now I wake to the reddest hair 
Without one worry, or one care. 

But here I sit all alone 
Waiting for you to come home. 

What you mean to me, Where to start? 
You made a home inside my heart. 

Just one kiss, I would go to the depths of hell 
Know I would do anything for you Rachael....

Who's the big fat reddest suit
the children shout excited.
Who'll take presents from his bag
and hand them proof enlighted.

Who shouts ho
fat ho fat ho
Laughs for children
brash and brough.

Cracks the whip of Christmas Spirit
Beckons kids to sit and stare at.
Fuels the weir for Christmas wishes.
and calls communion Saint Nick Merrit.

Passing through an easel of brushed hues
Amber fields burst to heed summer’s call,
Rising with the night, fragrant like mist
As a radiant display etches a canvas
Dressed by vibrant plumes, by reddest shades
Igniting a glorious bliss within my heart…
Slowly, I breathe in heaven's rhapsody
Enjoying a field’s grandeur before it drifts away.

give me Spring
above all seasons
its scented blooms
the reddest sunsets
the fullest moons

imagination in the clouds
A Dreamer's wish 
like a bird to fly
watch butterflies
slip from their cocoon
their colored wings
slowly dry

hear gentle rains
that soak the soil
while crickets sing
into night
as fireflies glow
a twinkling light

feel the pulse
of Nature's heart
as life is born
and renewed
with colored crown
Spring's adorn

Freshly fallen snow sparkling in the sunlight leading a trail to grandmas cabin nestled deep within the woods, where tall trees cover the area a hidden beauty seen mostly in fairytales. 

The smell of pine, cedar, and oak combined with smoke from the chimney and the reddest cranberries you have ever seen capturing the moment in delight with the aroma of freshly made cinnamon buns served with coffee overlooking the fresh sparkling snow in a cabin covered in snow....

I grew a rose
The reddest rose
Of any rose that grows
The sweetest scent
Magnificent
Resplendence for the nose
Irrefutable
How beautiful
None would dare oppose
So delicate
And elegant
I wonder if it knows

But it adorns
The sharpest thorns
For those who would impose
A little prick
Will do the trick
To leave it in repose
For in as much
One chance a touch
You'll see the blood that flows
So I propose
Your hands stay closed
And just admire my rose
