Sun Salutation
They raise their purple petals
like holy grails of spring
Expose their hearts of gold
for giving and receiving

It is because of them, that I forgive Winter for being the beast. We’re not close to this, so am bailing for an island.

I Love it! lively, animated; and the trope of “holy grails of spring” is quite apt. Just a very enjoyable little poem.

Hi Colleen! Oh I’ve missed your poetry lately. This is a good one… I really miss your great sense of humor… I so wish there were more hours in the day. I tried to link up to Dverse’s Open Link night at 6 oclock – it wouldn’t let me and said that links expired 4 hours earlier! Whoa! Next time I’ll set my alarm clock I guess. Anyway, it was good to read you again. Oh, that sounds weird, huh? “Good to read you again…” Man, computers are really screwing us up, aren’t they? 🙂
