Vanilla Skies...

Vanilla Skies...

A Poem by Quill~
"

For POEMS and POETRY Summer Competition

"

Take me to London
where the green path
leads to a pink rose garden...


I'll wear a wide brim hat
and a flirty blue sundress
to catch the spark in your eyes
every time the wind whistles...


We'll gaze at the vanilla sky
until the ice cream clouds

drip

drip

drip

from the heat of the sun
creating milky puddles...


Our memories will taste sweeter
once they melt away...

Oh Quill, this is beautiful! You've created a lovely scene, vivid imagery and lovely wording.

I loved the music, too. Billie Holiday is awesome! :)

The summer is the season to dream and fall in love or is it spring? Love Billie Holiday, could listen to her and Ella Fitzgerald all the day long while sitting on my front porch sipping southern sweet tea. Splendid read and write.

The stakes have been raised in that competition then! You have really captured the summer feel with surreal references to summer, this is very song like also and would make a brilliant ballad and or love song.

Beautiful poetry and a amazing song. I learn to love Jazz in Austin, Texas. Had good Jazz clubs and the old timers from the New Orleans hanging around. Poetry took me on a good road trip. Thank you for the excellent poetry and good music.
