Untamed

Unstoppable beauty,
Ultra wild wildflowers,
Under plum windswept skies!
Uplifting gay colors.
Unspoilt rampant meadow,
Unwilling to be bound.
Unusual colors.

Unusual in style, and it contains such vivid imagery. I feel like I am there! Does the repetition of 'wild' reinforce the idea of 'ultra' for you, or could that line be strengthened with a different adjective? Just my 2p.

  Thank you very much for your appreciative remarks. So glad you enjoyed it. To answer your question, the first use of the word wild in this poem, was to reinforce the the idea of unihibited growth and colors. It is also used in the sense of 'crazy,' or 'far out.' Kindest regards.
