flowers in March
the grocery store
suffices for the garden patch
Imperative

with her stamens
she motioned me closer
come admire my details
My Orange Sun
warming me
with color
on these gray days
To The Hydrangea
cold
is a kind
of coloring stick
Coleus Leads Fall’s Color Parade
with the zing
of a lime green
rick rack edge

nature makes
a long exhale
of bloom and color

my drought
of color
ended
Revealed
she turned
one petal down
revealing her mysteries
of gradation and form
A World Of Purple
separate plants
find kinship
in color
Deep Dive
iris and poppy
plumb the depths
of color
Flowers From A Friend
I submerge into
the sweetness and solace
of scent and colors

their shout
of color rises
from the forest floor

spinning color
in the garden
dizzy with glee
Waterfall Iris
splashing color
over the garden
into the air

your color
is the baritone
of the garden’s chorus
New Day
color and light
rushing in
pushing out the darkness
Exuberance
praise the amaryllis
injecting color
into winter

the comfort and care of color
carries us through
the cold night

I gloried
in the maple
taking her color as my strength

color
and form
undomesticated
Music’s Bloom
rhythm of orange
syncopated
by hue
At The Edge
listening
to the purple
echos

of life and color
Undulating Color
the garden an ocean
peony blooms as if
a sea anemone
Indian Paintbrush’ed
like watercolors
prairie fire bleeds color
across the landscape
The Color Purple
a touch
of sun and
color blooms
Gradation
the subtle shift
from hue to hue
comes quietly like insight
Within
snow storm
sound and color
silenced
Splash
hot day
refreshed by
a splash of color
Ground Control
tulip tip
rocket ship
powered by color
