Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

In the lee of the schoolyard
the bushes shrouded still
in the shadows of early dawn
lavender purple lilacs, the unopened blooms
still looking just like
rich black raspberry ice cream
with the rising of the light,
softening, brightening colors
from that darkness to pale lilac
