Winter Sonata
Oh, my wondrous winter rose!
I live to see you bloom in all your charming chilling grace.
Awaiting your pearly presence to embellish my arctic stance stilled in mystic motion,
where my frosted saccharine soul craves only your ethereal embrace to cast a spell of life.
Although distance divulges myriad of yearnings in vacant vermillion veins,
yet I am willing

My Vermillion Maple Tree
brilliant red maple tree
with her vibrant leaf flames
she gives me pause

reminding me of sun fire and blood
I love her

Vermillion Eye
on a still dawn day
black sky opens a vermillion eye
changing hue to intense fuchsia
then deepest gold
before being pushed aside
by the dilating iris of white gold sun

Hair a Deep Vermillion
Hair
a deep vermillion
with just a hint of orange
reaching almost to her waist
such shiny waves and curls
'twas the envy of other girls
but often they would call her names
their jealousy knew no bounds
it made her cry
she wondered why
her locks of deep vermillion
with just a hint of orange
instilled such hate from many
but

Vermillion Sky
Scarlet dawn’s amethyst dye engraves vermillion sky
Embossing amber dreams upon nightmares of night
Blushing rosily on ruby arc, glinting mountains high
While reddish filaments woven in lavender float by
Scintillating morn in golden glimmers of daylight
Scarlet dawn’s amethyst dye engraves vermillion sky
Autumn’s crimson leaves fall, rustling languid sigh
As daybreak adorns lilac in brushstrokes of delight
Blushing rosily on

Vermillion Sunrise At Kanyakumari
"A glance at the magical hues splashed into sky at dawn
Paints a picture of hope in my mind's blank canvas" ~ quote by poet
At the southernmost tip of The Peninsular India,
where the three seas meet at the 'Triveni Sangamam',
the blue waves hum in a surge of excitement,
gurgling, tossing and tumbling,
awaiting the

Vermillion Color Blood Voyage
Firm are those the vines that entrap mine heart;
So valiant are those champions that do so impart;
On a voyage of truths that seek and speak so darkest light;
In seclusion running forth evading so the toothless vampire blight;
Normal human remains so distain visit unawares;
Demons and Dragons and vagabond soldiers stare:
Equating debating vibrant untrusting realities:
Yet instilled he

Vermillion Raindrops
Dreams are nocturnal flowers, blooming when the sun has strayed far enough that we can see clearly. ~Terri Guillemets
Vermillion raindrops
By the millions
Falling around me
Like a cotillion of lovers
Vying for a favor,
While the insolent villain,
Oft seen in midnight dreams,
Watches from the shadows,
Flashes his deep Castilian smile,
And beguiled I run to him.

The Three Realms of Life
The Sun, the Earth, the Sky
And the birds come to fly,
Their wings wrapped with golden feathers
Kiss the white clouds and the mere blue sky.
The sky stands alone
A lone traveller, who covers the whole of Earth.
White fluffy clouds are its ornaments
While the Sun is its vermillion spot!
Stands the green mountains,
Giving it the huge green attire.
And the

Vermillion Flames
Color clings to the trees and won't let go,
though Winter has sent an early flurry.
And crimson canopies shake off the snow,
reassuring Autumn not to worry.
Jack Frost's fire excels in setting the trees
ablaze in scarlet and vermillion flames.
And though some snowflakes commandeered a breeze,
Winter's not earned the victory, She claims.
And as the snowflakes swiftly melt

Vermillion Autumn
VERMILLION AUTUMN
What is autumn to be, what it is to me;
The distance from the sun the earth is to be;
Nutrient not contained far beyond the universe;
Grasses, shrubs and trees losing nutriments;
Like blood leaving from your arms and hands runs;
Leaves losing colors, changing from green to orange, yellow browns;
Alas, tis be a vermillion autumn;
Where the

Vermillion Autumn Couplets
Crunching through woodland the senses revive
From fresh pine to birdsong the soul feels alive.
Squirrels make haste to stack winter supplies
As amber-winged swallows soar up to the skies.
With persimmon sunsets the sky is suffused
And trees boast their bronze, gold and fiery-red hues.
The full harvest moon beams a warm orange glow
And winks at the smiling plump pumpkins
