All Fineness and Finery Goes to Earth
by Clover Kreger
All aglow, a flame, ruby-ruddy, fire and fresh wounds bloody
Revealed colour rich and rosy in the greenling maze
Cells crushed and crumpled, moribund, unveiling
A vivid, colour-crazed, final phase of waning,
Dying in a blaze of scarlet glory
A crimson banner briefly blazing beauty
Dappled darkly in determined brown decay
Shortly feeding foliage finely – in a solid, earthy way
