ebullience reigns
in the hours
of the iris
Worthy Weed
disparage not the dandelion
who blooms in hope with wishes
Each Moment’s Bloom
so sweet the day
the air brand new
each moment blooms before me
Spring Flowering
a rose
of snow
bloomed in March
First Stirrings
seeds slumber while
forced bulbs bloom
in late winter’s light
Held
lichen blooms
on the granite post
barbed wire holds
the cold
Voiced
the center speaks
to all the beginnings to be
released when the bloom decays
Tied
tied to the sky
with a spider’s thread
blackberry iris blooms
Merry Meadow
a swath of wild flowers
lead to the road home
Mountain Flower
mountain of pink
a landscape of blooms
mirrors the granite outcropping
Highlight
petals catch
a ray of sun
enlightened blossom
Heart
depth of delicacy
intricacy of design
heart of the blossom
Exaltation
a mass of blooms
a choir of color
a devotion of flowers
Lessons
wildflowers instruct us
bloom where you are
Enchantment
a poetry of branches
and music in the light
a pause before the blooming
sweet magnolia May
Hallelujah
to bloom
in the winter sun
is to rejoice
Ceaseless
gone are the flowers
gone are the seeds
and still she blooms
Rock Roses
when the leaves fall
the rock blooms roses
Lilly
Her bloom holds
the promise
of this new day.
Triplets
Tamed by beauty
three wild aster
bloom as one.
Blues
All the colors
of the ocean and sky
reside in an iris bloom.
Assurance
When daffodils bloom
spring is a certainty.
Ruby Moon
Blooming in pinks and purples
a bean
being all it can be.
Posey
A tiny bouquet of piercing red
surrounded by heart shaped leaves
offered to you by August.
Sustenance
Flowers feed the soul.
Presence
Show your true colors
bloom boldly
claim and exclaim yourself.
Fleur-de-lis
Noble in color, royal in birthright
Iris is the garden’s rainbow goddess.
Traveler’s Joy
Darling of the door yard garden
clematis climbs up and along the picket fence;
most brilliant and ingenious buttercup.
Lilac
Prodigy of spring
sweetly scents
the warming days
Bequest
First bud begets the bloom
than flower brings the fruit.
