Statement

This poetry Beautiful Minnesota I use on postcards that I send to friends and university libraries.

Beautiful Minnesota is from my larger work Apple Skies, a chapbook that I made public to a few friends in 1993 with copyright. Following are stanzas from Beautiful Minnesota.

I love to kiss her wine dark lips
Where star leaves burn
Where leaves storm scarlet
In the Autumn.

She speaks candlelight in rose time
That's how she comes to me
With stars that bloom
On my love's lips
Like diamonds in the sky.

She kissed me with a rainbow
And I gave her my love storm
We love in Autumn wonder
And we kiss the winter white.

Her eyes that wink
Say violets think
And she is storming pretty
Today, tonight
The candles fire
Among her blossom locks.

Copyright 1993 Lynn Fisher
