~ ORANGE ~

~ ORANGE ~

Orange, the world cremates
Evening's play
For life's
Seasons,
The weakening eye of day
For tomorrow will die
In sunsets crypt
The cloudy canopy
Of hazy
Complexion
Every spirit upon the earth
Sweetly recognizing
The inevitable
Crash
Of yellows decay into
Orange,
Where the ripened rinds
Fulfill acquiescence
And the twisted sundresses
That goddesses
Drape across suntanned shoulders
So easily
Wear every virtue which
Glows red
Not unlike seeds sprouting apples
Whose orchard
In its rows of planned sustenance
Ultimately provides
The diapason
Of perfect rainbows
In melodious colors
Melting
Into the harmoniousness
Of sunset's voice
And where the heart of it
Bleeds
Orange.....

Tony Taylor

My Dear Tony,

Sunset, Sunrise
Each day ends, as a new one starts
The sky erupts in prisms pure
And the old one then departs

.
The cycle is perpetual
A day, a month, a year
Life is measured by these sands of time
Each one brings it's end more near

Love,
Larry xxx

My Dear Tony,

Your brilliant writes go directly to the core of my Soul, which immediately starts their interpretation.  I sit on pins and needles waiting for your reply, to learn if I have dissected them correctly.  
may the bug of true happiness fly up your nose!!   SO FUNNY!!
I hope that if it does, it is a "Gold" one, sent by Edgar Allen Poe.

Love you Bro,
Larry xxx

Larry is in tune with you there is no doubt, and Tina hits
it on the head in one.

Orange chakra - the throat -we speak, we sing we love the sunshine
everything that is warm.

Ladies in the attire sundresses draped across shoulders
Matt Monro "Sunrise Sunset"   would be perfect for this piece
your imagination is amazing.

Hugs my friend

A magnificent free verse offering this is, Tony!
Rife with verve and vividly expressed verbiage, superb imagery depicting one of Mother Nature's true treasures--a brilliant, blazing orange sunset.
A you well know, there can be no light without darkness, and vice versa.
Ever attempted to rhyme a word for orange, by the way?
If you know of one, please by all means, let me know.
~Professor Poe
