A butterfly flutters by,
Bringing with it Spring.
The desolate and the darkness
Shall have no chance to sing.
The poppies bloom, and frighten Gloom
With orange petal’s light,
As sky-high gulls give bleating cries
Which slip seamless to night.
Sound the sun in azul ink
And sound the summer’s heat;
My head’s a-buzz with honeyed winds
And flower’s bumble fleet.

Justin (132.28.253.225) -- Sunday, May 4 2008, 06:09 pm Paints a nice picture. Excellent choice of words throughout, but "Sound the sun in azul ink", was definately my favorite. I agree with Red Dragon, very refreshing. |
Bipedalguy (65.96.237.196) -- Monday, May 5 2008, 01:30 am Just kidding. That was a most beautiful write. It was a pleasure to read. I couldn't find "azul" in my dictionary It's so-called "unabridged", but it's ancient. I associate "azul" with "azure". It seems to fit. I was going to mow my lawn, but now I'm going to check your other writes. Keep it up. Your writing is outstanding. Bipedalguy |
Puppet (156.1.60.60) -- Monday, May 5 2008, 08:30 pm Thanks guys, I'm glad you enjoyed it. And Bipedalguy, azul is just blue in spanish, I was trying to find a blue that fit the rhythym. Huh, I guess azure would work just as well, that's probably what I had in mind. |
Terrye* (67.187.237.233) -- Tuesday, May 6 2008, 01:28 am Aww butterflies---heavens tiny Mystic Angels with fragile satin like wings, so tender--so shy---yet so brave to land upon a trusted friends knee..this was truly lovely--i enjoyed it-- Azul? one thing comes 2 mind --Azul Margarita = ) |
Justin (70.130.36.87) -- Tuesday, May 6 2008, 08:35 pm I had to come back and read this again today. Such a great image in my head when I read this. Simply outstanding work. |
