Color-Curious

July 3, 2021July 3, 2021 ~ wordancerblog ~ 2 Comments

This summer, I am color-curious. I look out my living room window to the meadow and woods beyond. I congratulate myself for getting through the drab, bare winter into the spring that exploded with golden forsythia, and now unfolds to summer surrounded by all shades of verdant green.

    Thank you for this amazing insight into colour in nature, and human nature. I love your poetry and I had no idea Crayola had such imaginative names for the colours – a poem in itself. You have brought brightness into my day.
