Florida Arabesque
Maya Ellenson is keen on creating unconventional poetry and prose, inspired by what the moment reveals.
Florida Buttonbush
Nature's Filigree
Treading on the sky
velvety as a table cloth
in this looming twilight
even the earth is no longer solid
but an extension of the clouds
ethereal as never
hosting a feast of a butterfly
hovering atop the buttonbush
its tiny bursting stars
golden-haired
as nature’s improvised filigree
keeps evolving
the bloody moon
is about to spill across the cobalt sky
like a glass of red wine
