Heaven Blue--By Diane Webster--United States

Heaven Blue

Heavenly blue morning glories
yawn under rising sunshine
as dozing sunflower heads
lift and witness the sun path
across the sky east to west…

no one knows how they retrace
their stares during nightfall
to reawaken at dawn.

Afternoon busts forth over
four-o’clock blossom fireworks,
and cosmos wave hummingbird wings
as dusk descends like a dragonfly
settling on a zinnia landing pad.
