seeding
the future
so goes eternity
Pause for Refreshment
sipping
zinnia nectar
most delicious afternoon
Keyhole
the aperture
through which
time and seasons pass
Music’s Bloom
rhythm of orange
syncopated
by hue
Strawberry Lime Twirl
sweet
and tart
floral pick me up
Looking Into The Light
even sunflowers
need
some shade
Zinnia Bud
your bloom
before the bloom
foretelling of design
Not Done Yet
sweet September
unwilling to let
summer’s party fade away
Hummingbird Moth
hovering
without the hum
unfeathered fuzzy one
Companions
they relied
on each other
for texture and tone
This Humble Paradise
pause and let
time expand into
beauty’s forever unfolding
Amongst The Blooms The Wing-ed Ones
beyond the porch rail
butterfly and hummingbird
make their morning rounds
When The Senses Become One
lamb’s ear
listening
to light
Proliferation
pink rabbit ears
multiply
before my eyes
In The Morning Light
the buds, the blooms
the finished ones
cosmos telling life’s story
Contemplation And The Bench
the empty bench
holding space
for all of my thoughts
Garden Verse
the garden
finds her
angle of repose
Morning’s Song
voices raised
in joyous praise
birds greet the day
Two Came Together
summertime visit
from dear friends
long departed
Guilelessness
all of beauty’s
every sustenance
in the simple rose
Frog On The Toadstool
I’ll do
what I want
is his only thought
First Dahlia
a dazzler adorns
the back porch
hand rail
The Stone Mushrooms
aspire
to be added to
stone soup
Into The Deep
dive into
delphinium’s
blue depths
It Came
the cool breeze
that eases
everything
To Be Chosen
flowers await
their moment
in the sun
Undulating Color
the garden an ocean
peony blooms as if
a sea anemone
Within
hidden inside
tiny delicate flowers
can’t help but bloom
The Garden At Noon
from the shade
I take a long drink
of her colors
Towering Flowers
towering
above the moss
sedum skyscrapers
