Peonies
By: Elaine Frankonis on 5/18/2002; 7:19 PM

There are no blossoms real
as Renoir's peonies --
no rose as red
no red as real.

I would have them
for my lover's table,
to bloom red and real
as a heart open
to the palette knife.

Hey, Elaine! Welcome to Unreason. Glad to see someone who knows jeneane sessum posting, even if for some reason she doesn't.

Nice poem! And that is the sum total of my skill at workshopping poetry!
