Mixing and matching

Cavernous ice glows azure freezing cold
Crystalline snow captures sun’s early gold
Variegated gold patterns in the grain of the tree
Clear salty blue in the shallows at sea
Deep winter green of the Green river flowing
Same green of a smoothly round ocean stone glowing
Sharp purple blackness of early midnight
Rippling pale shadows of winter moonlight
Cardinal’s eyes living obsidian made
Silky rough driftwood from coastlines of jade
Hypnotic blue at the heart of a flame
Wind from the west with the dense scent of rain
Heart breaking the stillness and echoes in sleep
Low drumming rhythm of earth sounding deep

Masterpiece! Reading your poems is like being teleported to another world.
