BLOSSOMS, by                    
First Line: Not all of lifted florescence
Last Line: Rained blossoms of blood.
Subject(s): Dreams; Nightmares


Not all of lifted florescence
Is worn of green-flamed spears;
Though striving from twist of their rootlets
To slow chant of years.

Dreams—too ethereal to waken,
May capture life at its flood:
A Tree ... stark boughs once shaken,
Rained blossoms of blood.
