For Karla's Challenge...
Inflorescence: the budding and flowering of a plant

Pink-Hued Inflorescence

 

In youth,

the green of springtime

lit my supple limbs with strength

 

and pink-hued inflorescence lips

kissed pleasant dews

of summer.

 

As autumn turned the summer gold

my stem convexed

with weight,

 

and blossoms once pink-hued of youth

bowed down

and kissed the snow.

You outline the seasons of life in very plesant metaphor--thanks for not having a fat boy crash into the leaves. I especially like the last stanza and the image of what we have become starting in youth becoming the blessings of old age...at least that's how I see it....Jerry
