Three Word Wednesday CCVII

Written for and posted to 3WW
The words this week are:
Gait, Nudge, and ripen.

Here's mine:

DREAM

I know you saw the missiles coming

but did you see the castles in the sky?

As they gait like horses at full gallop

speeding through the thinning clouds.

If you could dream, you could give my
green tomatoes a nudge to ripen.

For Camille at Pierrefonds...

Where the clouds hang low in the sky

and the sun lights the countryside blue

 yellow greens into gold
and so the pictures unfold...

When the paint on the canvas is set

the artist sits out in the street

Rue Gagny, Eragny, Camille Pissarro

and the lollipop trees look so neat
