Bright Red Geraniums On The Window Ledge Of A Dream

bright red geraniums on the window ledge of a dream
nodded and smiled as if from an old fashioned fairy tale.
the cats were prescient and the crowds below

bowed without knowing to the kings
within their midst who, after all smiled up
at the red geraniums and just couldn't

help themselves because it reminded them
of the old neighborhood
in the taffy sunshine
