In recognition of Poetry Month, and to celebrate and highlight our treasure trove of Orcas Island poets, Orcas Issues is pleased and honored to again offer daily poetry during April.
Under A Yellow Sky
— JoEllen Moldoff —
Under a yellow sky
paint one pony.
Add some oaks
dark in value.
Later, there’ll be time enough
to paint the pasture
so the animal can graze
in the grasses flowing
green in the breeze
of your bamboo brush.
