FORTUNE.

 

 

Fortune.


A given gem of jewelled morning
is calling to me.
Outside is waiting a diamond-day.

 

Jadest of green reveals affluence
unfolding between
shimmers of crystal dewing each
leafy twig as rise
bluey bells of expensive sapphire.

 

Amazing that emerald opulence
as snowdrop perfection
adorns shy faces in aquamarine.

 

Tiny white eyes of cachéd daisies
vie with gold celandine
embroidering topaz over dun earth.

 

What better resources of treasure
make purses richer
than Spring fortune well searched.

 

Nature\'s kind urges not to despise
even the smallest
beginnings will find greatest wealth.
