Ivory feather clouds
deep blue sky.
White hot sun
becoming disheveled by the winds.
Solar rays flaring up in utter brilliance
to brighten a rather blasé day
that is an interlude between
winter and spring.
Displaying the holly berries of winter
and forget-me-nots from spring
one red ~ one blue
one waning ~ one rising ~ like the late afternoon sun.
This changing of seasons
promises lighter days
flowers blooming in different seasons
and a changing of the guard.
