Stop Lights

On a cold day clear and bright
fresh and crisp
Dream of being by the fire
stop light red warms you
Amber lights melt you
Green lights of summer days

Red I look into embers of my log fire
so enticing safe and warm
melts my insides

Amber mysterious aurora
magical images appear
of the unknown

Green dreamy summer days
green grass swaying
in a gently breeze

Dear Magz

Long time, it seems, and here we are greeted by such a vivid warm write from the Mistress. I am pleased I never missed it. I hope you are doing well. There is a tweak of sadness here, but you, as Seren says, have put this poem to canvas. Bravo. Love to u. XX

I like this comment Electric

My fave moment is at junction of major highway intersect twenty four lights and counting (cross walk signs) three per lane! I like how its all automated Everyone looking at the morning walkers and the morning walkers looking at the car movers truck drivers bus sitters Esker~ (yes the images blurring!!)
