parade – Leaf And Twig

Coleus Leads Fall’s Color Parade

with the zing
of a lime green
rick rack edge

late summer blooms
inveigle
autumn’s turn

together we sit
and wait for fall’s
parade of color

this rightful place
at river’s edge
near summer’s end

parade
of clouds
celebrates summer

bedazzling beetles
six legged jewels
parade color

ascending blooms
parade color
across summer

a violet and white
parade of quaker ladies
adorns May’s main street

Clouds gather in formation
ascending towards the heavens
marching across the sky
as pines stand sentry to their parade.
