Red Valentine

Does Easter get redder 
Every year until it blooms
A flaming crimson
Just when you think the blood
Has passed into the earth
It comes back redder
In my hibiscus
So I can put my hands
Around it but my mind
Only falters at the door
Of understanding redness
That heart's firm beating
From which all
The other colors flow
