sunflower hill...

Sunflower Hill
There
A house
A swash of butter cream & crimson
& another
Sienna & seed & fruit on the ground
& another
Up the perfume roads
Down the perfume streets
Mustards & Blues
Tall & windows & a lonely bell ringing
& one grand tree in the village square
A living mulberry
A living ghost
The flowers in the sky
Waving
In the breeze
Where is your heart? Sunflower Sky
Certainly not in the bell ringing take a look around
In the flower beds
In the flower beds
In the flower beds
Earth paints -
Huts & stucco & clay
& old things in the flower beds
Jadeite & nephrite cups & bottles
Paintings of the Impressionists
Cabochons cut of seas & glass
Pink & brown
& out the old window frames paint chipped & peeled
Sunflowers & sunflowers & sunflowers
On Sunflower Hill
