Red Garden Sun

Flower bud unsprung.

Curved white lips. 

Leafy fingers wrung. 

Dew laughs, smiles, slips. 

Churning readiness. 

Boiling anticipation. 

Untold steadiness. 

Sunlight's revelation. 

Burst forth in small song. 

Only hope and bright days. 

No worries, thoughts prolonged. 

Only curiosity and eager gaze. 

A red eye purges from above. 

Blood drips and soaks red. 

New light robs light and love.

Inward eyes cripple petals dead. 

BItter bites borough to roots. 

Sobs rip, tear and morn. 

Rage fumes stems, shoots. 

Skin burst black in thorns. 

The world shrinks to palm. 

Wind bites bitter or burns hot. 

Gritting teeth never balm. 

Wonders are stupid, shot. 

Dark is the Red Garden Sun. 

Pride stabbed a red stain. 

Destruction robbed the gun. 

Fist clenched tight, only pain.
