APRIL GOLDENROD

                          APRIL GOLDENROD




Late April’s goldenrod,
not golden but a vibrant green
in preparation for October scene.

Background now of silver sand,
dune fences in ecru, then waters
light and darker shades of blue
until horizon’s lilac kiss ascending
into  azure of the firmament
bedecked with luminescent clouds. 

Breathtaking beauty, it never
 is the same, but always it is here. 

How dare one mouth
impoverishment’s complaint,
enriched by  all this sunset splendor.
