my cathedral, green
butresses a deep blue southern sky
my cardinal, red
sings hymns that raise
a host of finches, gold

That is easily a flag I could live under; green, red and, gold.
What lively colours. What a flag you paint. ~rick
I was captured by the first line. It painted such a serene image.
This brevity speaks to me. I take flight with finches at the end of it.
Enjoyed this short burst through colours and nature.
Karen, this is so beautiful! The images are stunning, and I love the colors. I can feel those gold finches rising with the last line.
Thanks to all of you, my poet friends, who took your time to come here and read and comment. I am deeply gratified and humbled by your thoughtfulness.
I hope you take time to look around the site and enjoy this eclectic collection of poetry.
Julie, you are the one who told me about Bolts of Silk, and I'm glad you did. It has become one of my regular favorite poetry reads.
Enjoying all the poetry on Bolts of Silk, but I especially liked the economical imagery and structure of Karen's poem. Joanna
Karen is a fine poet and will go far.
