fireworks

Allium Sparklers

each seed suspended
on a stream of light
beauty bursts

frozen fireworks
sparklers
on the window

amidst
lichen sparklers
explosions of red

The garden displays
its colorful fireworks
beneath the sun.

Only a tiny ember
of fall’s glorious fireworks
remains in the landscape.

On the Fourth of July
the garden celebrates in colors
with fireworks of blooms.

Each new limb begins as a sparkler in green.
The pine celebrates its own independence day.

The fireworks of fall
celebrate color
in all of its intensity and delicacy.
