In Weather's Feast

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Flakes of white chocolate drifting

dancing over the landscape lifting…

As the yellow pineapple sun sings

a lilting papaya cloud lullaby brings…

On my warm tongue served fine and cold

vanilla ribbons of icing-cream unfold…

And in the hunger of warmer winds

scents of grilling-stirred breezes move in…

Catching crystal drops of white-wine rain

drip-dropping, never stopping candy canes…

Cinnamon and scarlet spinning swirls release

An orchestra of birdsong in weather’s feast...

Author's Note

Isn't life simply delicious... :)

such a whimsical, dreamy willy-wonka kind of feel here. It is mouth-watery and lovely to the eye at the same time. What a great way to pack a punch at our senses!
