The laburnum blue

 

               The laburnum blue.

Have you heard of laburnum blue?
Neither have I..
Laburnums blossom in yellow hues
Laburnum blue just sprung in my mind.

It held no meaning
But in my mind it dangled
and swayed.
It wasn't the blossoms...
But the word,
The roots of which carved an ambiguity in my mind.

It must be absurd
I think,
To chase a word 
to a meaningless end..
Or a blur image that dilly dallied
In some remote corner of
my existence..

And now, I write
to relieve my mind.
As within that ecstasy 
it rests..
The more I write 
I'm tied to it,
And it weighs me down to see
I become the laburnum blue,
As it has become me!
