Jacaranda Flowers

Jacaranda flowers,
floating down to sight,
can remind me of snow,
on a frosty night,
they land in your hair or on the path before,
they make the ground amethyst and you just adore,
that color against the sapphire sky,
as you watch those flowers fly,
gently down to where you are seated,
and from the Jacaranda you are greeted.
