red-green-yellow


cardinal red clashes
into the foreground
moving like a rhythm
long forgotten

no one asks
for a map
or which side of the equator
you might wake up on

maple leaves offer
the most promise
if you can't find any
go with poplar

forsythia before the drought
aspen if you get high enough
if sunflowers are planted
the bees will sing
