i soar up the sky
white is the colour of my dream
curled in ice crystal clouds
higher and bolder
black is the ink of my pen
circling the open fields, beyond
my brown wingspan, i touch
the wild azure, covering feathers
with gold dust and grains
star gazing, i sprawl
across the page, river edge
in red, green and blue
Posted for Poetry Jam: Color Your Life: red, green and blue are primary colors
and Haiku Heights: prompt is page - my suggestion for HH (aka Heaven)

The photograph is beautiful and the poem really fits the prompt of "page" to me - life as a page- gives me a sense of wide expanse and wings - possibilities. I really like this poem.
ReplyDeleteThe picture is beautiful but your words give it movement.

ReplyDeleteThe misty morning or heavenly evening, a picture so tantalizing! Your verse soars and hovers above all that!
