This is like painting and a song - a dirge if you will. The repetition of vermillion at the end is bold and is like the final paint stroke of the poem.
The poetic language is obvious in all of this. Lines three and four are a good example of poetic imagination. The poem has a good flow that goes quite well with the romantic diction. One does not see anything being said in a forceful way. Perhaps the verses came naturally enough.

The pigment of vermilion is toxic; is the aspect of toxicity (amid beauty) intended by the poet?
This poem feels like a bandage to me. A bright raindrop of hope to remind us that love is still possible. Thank you for posting it 🙏
The imagery of a vermillion petal.
Feelings of opportunities,
Feelings of memories, awake!
vermillion tulip - love the sound of this! Great imagery!
Unrequited love?

This is in one word "good."
Love Andrew Wyeth. Wonderful choice.
vermillion dawn / intermittent rainfall
One of my favorite Wyeth paintings.
This is sad separation, overcast the sky sheds intermittent tears…. A vermilion day.
Beautiful painting - wonderful poem!
