the universe –
one color at a time
bring (to me)
the sunset in a jar
tell me
where the lines were meant
and where the yellow bleeds
as blue into an ocean
(of the sky)
a flaming brush
to raise a wing –
of meadows stitched together
before another dawn
(will disappear)
infuse the dark with the wonder –
secrets pink and grey
orchids where the stones
have worn apart
carry me
the breadth of night –
across (into) forever
leave me
where the truth grows wild
in sheets
of muscadine

Lovely-
Thank you, dear Cynthia……. Your kindness is such a blessing to me. Truly…..
Wonderful….
Thank you, lady blue………. I’m so glad you liked this.
a muscadine sunset–luscious and heady–lulling me to sleep. Just beautiful!
Kinda makes you want to dig out the harmonica, doesn’t it? 🙂 Thank you, Jeannie. Much love, Bobbie
Lovely imagery x
Oops, by that I mean the images created by your words not just the picture, really nice.
I’m with you……….I knew what you meant! Thank you so much…….. Love, Bobbie
I am so moved by the soothing spirit of love of life, that runs through your poems…its like i found a vast treasure chest of priceless jewels! I thank Lady Blue for introducing your words into my life!
I thank her as well for bring you across the miles to this shore……….
I also want to go to that place where muscadines contain the truth in the wild! Very surreal, this one!
Oh, they do indeed, but you need to also watch out for chiggers (or I believe northerners refer to them as ‘no-see-ums’). They can make you hate muscadines (and blackberries too)….. Thank you for your kindness. Love, Bobbie
