May

Only sleeting rain after sun
after sun after buttercups
in the fields after bright yellow
bright green

– James Steerforth ( © 2008 )

Hardly symbolic, or is it? Yet it was born in response to Totally Optional Prompts’ request for Symbolic Poetry.

(in variation of Barbara Guest’s June)

About James Steerforth

I am an author of poetry and fiction, translator and painter who loves to have fun with borrowed feathers.
