The blue, the blue
What with the mauve-blue rosemary and lilac
bee-loud as Innisfree, wisteria in festoons
all the hot sun day, blue day,
sharp scented, sweet
you’d want to take a brush or pen
canvas, paper, paint
squeezed tubes of blue in several shades, and gold
to gild and shine,
to hug and hold the cloudless hour
the birdsong, dancing bees
art’s fixative
this perfect April day
