Hiding Under the Wisteria


Hues
Blue and pink
Twist around my thoughts
Growing taller, hanging
Over fences, bridging
Gaps in trees, no more sky.

A soft wind
Pushes blossom on my face
Tickles my eye
Smells surrounding
Imagining.

A chink of light passing through
Sweet like summer
Vivid like spring
As I lay on a carpet
of flowers.

  4. My experience is of hiding under lilac--but wisteria is even softer-- a magic in that. Thanks for the remembrance. k.
