dreaming and living in color

Colour! What a deep and mysterious language, the language of dreams.
 ~Paul Gauguin

dreaming in color-
hot red sun melts
into a tangerine rind

upon a cool blue lake
spanning forever, gazing
upon lush green woods

oh what seizes us
in our patterned dreams:
opening our eyes

to figure what it means:
what's true for us, gently
tugging us awake

living color- spilled blake
brilliance in blue winged words&
paul's plenaire strokes-- breathing

where dust was trapped;  now
corners are free to roam, up
apricot walls, out basil green doors

meeting sage life-- making it
our own fertile delicacy,
nourished in the citrusy silence

inspired by paul gaughin and william blake
