Won't say it deserved it, but this won honorable mention from Shadow Poetry. Those of you who have been kind enough to follow my poetry have probably noticed that color figures prominently. Been thinkin' of putting together a collection titled "Color me Alive." Although. . .so much fun to dream up titles, believe I could fill a book with them. Several volumes!!

Poem Artwork


 


Peach is Nice, and Brown


Confident of her talent,
Nature paints up a storm,
rounding off each raindrop
with exquisite attention to form.
But dawn tends to make her waffle
from pink to purple to apricot.
Her palette is rich with gold,
and she likes every shade a lot.


This is why every morning
greets us with a brand new sky.
So-so or spectacular, it lets us know
we need to add color to our lives.

So colorfully expressed and such a wonderful tribute to nature. Your message is good advice as well:
"So-so or spectacular, it lets us know
we need to add color to our lives." Thank you for this offering, Phyllis. Love and peace to you. Regis

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
