Gayle Sweeney Poems

Blueberries came out in the tall patch and looked like a handful of
Pink rose pearls.
Their blue with a brilliance now and a jewelled twinkle, astounds
The sunny world!
...

Summer water lilies in Rye show pure white petals
And lily pads.
Below the warm sun the rippling water in blue is sparkily clad.
The shining, stunning pond seems ready for a pretty gala -
...

The picked red apples, dazzled by the golden sun, glistened
Where they were held beside an old barn in their, wooden bins.
At Christmas red and green orchard colors often are worn.
From simple apples some pure delights of autumn are born.
...

The majestic painting in my heart found a home.
By the true blue pure treasured heavens that is known.
What colors do you see there plein air
Dancing joyfully and all so rare?
...

Wood sorrels,
Cradled in the shining grass,
Are sunny shamrocks nodding
Under the bright blue heavens
...

Rich, cool caroling trees
With airy, shimmery leaves joyfully sing
As to the silvery forest floor
The pure flowers elegance bring.
...

Bright white lily starlets,
Open scarlet blossoms,
Sunburst golden yellow flowers
And melodic pink petals
...

My bright, summery pink rose painted toes
softly sank in the warm sand.
Sunny, glittering stars on the dancing blue water
Dazzled the land.
...

This poem is intended for children too. I thought maybe a small book with a color on each page....

Blue
The summery sea is lovely since it is sunshiny blue.
...

Wearing a charming
Cerise dress
And deep pink rose stockings,
The belle outside my train window was holding
...
