Flowers of the sun
Royal collar of Egyptian gold After winter’s brittle dormancy Yellow is the most optimistic color Fistfuls of a child’s pleasure The knotted scarf of a woman’s patience Unwinding to fly free as a kite Ushering in an age of Gatsby in sepia It’s an unabashed overflow with Mint juleps and butter-yellow teacakes Frittering away sun-baked afternoons In villas vying for light of the kings
