depending on the next

with her mission to carry us
through our long winter days

and form
undomesticated

rhythm of orange
syncopated
by hue

I Saw
the hollyhock
listening
to time fleeting
Guilelessness
all of beauty’s
every sustenance
in the simple rose
First Dahlia
a dazzler adorns
the back porch
hand rail
Undulating Color
the garden an ocean
peony blooms as if
a sea anemone
Within
hidden inside
tiny delicate flowers
can’t help but bloom
Towering Flowers
towering
above the moss
sedum skyscrapers
Nature’s Time
flowering sundial
it’s gnomon
the coulds
Perfection Realized
to see her
cup the sunlight
in her perfect petals

from the tulips
as the violets wander by

upon your cheek

shares her smile
offering much needed cheerfulness

the enormity
of tiny things
Into The Unknown

with complete abandon
to life’s plan

a touch
of sun and
color blooms

of brightness
in a winter day

plumage blooms
fans on the window
First Light
as the garden bed sleeps
first light
blooms in the sky

one last dance
of color
