I love the solid colors and the movement you create here. Your layering is nice; it creates a nice movement, for it makes my mind’s eye move upward to the flowers atop each other. I then like the tumble (“cascade”) at the end. It keeps a positive energy; you even turn gray skies a bit brighter because of the red roses with green thorns.
I love the imagery in this poem. Black thoughts, turquoise flowers and lavender swirls. Your poetry even proves you like color. I also like how I can almost “taste” each word. Good job.
This one jumped out. It’s like a poetic MirĂ³.
