Rapture Garden
Dan Lavery
Cut thick vines in sun
Below tall pine and silver maple shadow.
Plant scarlet acacias,
Purple, red, yellow, and white rose bushes.
Spray garden creating rainbow;
Lift leaves and spread branches of
Peach, plum, apricot, and grapefruit dancers,
Caress their fruit, ravish their flesh,
Lick lush juice.
Savor symphony of fragrances, hues, tastes.
Staggers my senses, energizes my spirit.
Nature lavishes me with joy.
