there are no yellow flowers or blue sea out side the windows, only silt from the sounds of next door, and
the laundry is the same
only colorful.


i am ruminating the differnce of the crystal clear and winter blue.
the differnce of the ocean from sandy shore to mountain rock roar.

there is no yellow, only pink blossoms,
on brown braches,
they do give me relief: the brown does. but not the same as the yellow,
when they are alive.
and away from the turqoise blue.

This is wonderful. Redheart angrybraids? Are your braids really angry? I love that name, and the image of an angry braid makes me laugh. Nice to meet you. I like your poem. Yellow is so bright and cheerful, it is no wonder you miss the yellow.

I've found that yellow is just blue without green. . .

and that this poem says more than I'll ever be able to know. . . and I like that. . .

Amelia, my zen poet, it's been awhile...

As always your style and observations are moving...this one strikes me so sad, tho! I hope you stick around, as I have missed your differences of looking at things.

I hope you are well, sweet friend!
