My Favorite Thing


Sweet and sour,
The blooming flower,
The ageing shades,
The greens and jades,
The reds and blues,
The lovely hues,
Springs and autumns,
Dreams in bosom,
Life, I hold, in all its glory.

      Thank you Deanna. 33 words were totally insufficient for summing up favorite things. Thought I will handle it this way.

      Thank you Azara. I hadn't realized this when I posted. I had tried to relate it to the old age but guess your's and Tara's interpretation goes well too :) Thank you for giving me a new perspective on my own writing.
