cream is on the rose
pale blue skies have chiffon clouds
lemon sun, lilacs
pale buds opening
champagne sand and sea frothing
pink daisies dreaming
peach blooms in shadows
she is waking from her nap
......
in violet dawn
he screeches a world awake
barnyard bugler struts
the sun is coming
and he's the first one to know

the dusk's sunset,
and the full moon
peeked through my drapes,
spreading reflections and shadows at my feet,

in the middle of the day
at the latter part of June
profuse blooms such ripe berries
the world is waking
I so adored late hours. I was what you would call a night owl,
As fireflies seldom appear, until creamy moon is on the prowl.

red rooster.
Keen bluebirds
whistle and call for gold sun-
songs of the thrill days.
Fading dreams
waft in fading mist
so lovely.

tall thin and graceful
palm trees on a white sand beach
reach for orange skies
the day's elegance
is visible in a breeze
along beauty's path
white crested blue waves
ever searching like the wind
