Icon7 Petals in the Wind

Where once the bloomed in early rains,
Wild flowers ranged toward the sky.
Such beauty spanned across the plains
Like reaching out to wave good-bye.

Wild flowers ranged toward the sky.
Confetti colors gently blend
Like reaching out to wave good-bye;
Painting beauty to the end.

Confetti colors gently blend,
Floating through where branches bend,
Painting beauty to the end
Are now just petals in the wind.

Floating through where branches bend,
Such beauty spanned across the plains
Are now just petals in the wind
Where once the bloomed in early rains.

Thanks for your comment Bear.

Yep, The line is suppose to end with rains (with the "s" ) because of the many rains that fell upon the petals before the winds carried them away across the plains.
And also so that is would rhyme better. Thanks again.

Blessings

Sally I just adore this form of poetry...I've tried one but you have inspired me to try another...it is such a layer blending of beauty and imprints itself on the mind and heart with the repetition, expanding each time to envelope more of the meaning....absolutely love it!
