The Bloom

I am born from your golden skin
radiant like the winter afternoon
wrapped in the fulgent rays of sun
stemming from the roots of your pores
rising like a vine in its full vigour
entwined to your poised brown frame
spanning through your stretches and arcs
I thrive in the credence of your brace
only to bloom with gilded shine
like ourulent mustard flowers
spread over bistre brown plane.

  1. We grow oilseed rape on our farm, as in your photo and in April and May when it is in full flower, the area is carpeted in this golden beauty. Lovely poem! 💛

    1. How beautiful your farm must be, Viola! I love the view of vast fields covered with mustard flowers. In India they bloom around this time of the season, and they are truly a bliss to watch. Thank you dear for the read and the lovely comment. I wish you a joyous and peaceful new year! 🤗

      Much love!

      1. Forgive me .. yes, mustard also has such as similar flower! (We grow this too, although not for crops, but for cover to give songbirds a food source throughout the winter, so a patch here and a patch there.
        I look forward to more writings from you this year! x

      Why am I unable to see your site btw? It says the authors have deleted the site.
