Classic and Contemporary Poetry


CALIFORNIA by MARY CAROLYN DAVIES

First Line: BLUE, BLUE, APRIL BLUE
Last Line: GOLD, GOLD, GOLD!
Subject(s): BLUE (COLOR); CALIFORNIA; COLORS; GOLD;

BLUE, blue, April blue—
A drift of white, and a rift of blue,
A dream of white and a gleam of blue,
Blue, blue, blue!

Gold, gold, poppies' gold,
A flare of gold, and a glare of gold,
A hint of green, and a glint of gold,
Gold, gold, gold!
