that minx
the geranium
delivering deep red
Valentine Delivery
Statuesque
in stone
and petaled forms
a nobility of beauty
A Place In The Sun
kissed
and surrounded
by a warm embrace
Every Bloom A Manifestation Of Faith And Hope
she came indoors
with her mission to carry us
through our long winter days
Holiness Seen
tiny white outline
halo
on hallowed leaf
Spinning
the geranium’s
color wheel
spun by cold
Presage of the Leaves
geranium begins
fall’s colors
creeping in
Geranium Rain
deluge of color
quenching the thirst
for joy
Plain Jane
stalwart and steadfast
geranium who colors even winter
so often overlooked in summer’s prom of flowers
Suggestion
wild geranium
suggests to the trees
the new season of colors has begun
The Refreshment of Color
inside
a tall drink of color
ends winter’s dry monochrome
Afire
the flame
of red geranium
against the chimney wall
Highlight
petals catch
a ray of sun
enlightened blossom
Overheard
the flowers whispered
life needn’t be solved
it just – must – be lived
Geranium
water colored petals
brighten shortening days
Fire Engine
Geranium sounds
the summer alarm
with her red siren.
Cluster
Tiny buds
huddle together soaking up sun
gathering the power to flower.
Coral
Geranium makes the garden’s coral
a blossom so shimmery, fresh and delicate
it might have come from the ocean floor.
Moth Magic
Fuzzy lemon drop
wings kissed by lavender
one pink leg steps forward
Rain Drops
The geranium wears
spider web lace
with rain drop diamonds.
