beatitude
held in place
with flower pins
Nature’s Pincushion
Stoplight
do not go
stay and admire
sunshine and saturation
Disguised
two eye-lashed eyes
an interrupted smile
moth of many faces
Spiral
turn, turn, turn
in upon the self
end at the beginning
Row Upon Row
a house for a million questions
zinna’s petals plucked
reveal only one answer
Intimates
sweet nothings
the bee whispers
to the hollyhock’s bloom
Copious Bloom
tiger lily tealights
like candles
in the wind
Vixen
smoldering
red lipped lily
pursed for a kiss
Fluidity
hosta leaves
embody water’s
waves and current
Clematis Queen Of Climbers
saucer sized blooms
with whirligig centers
plumming the depths of purple
Legs Akimbo
six knee-ed
nimbly ants traverse
the intricacy of bloom
Dancer
this rose
in her pinks
my garden’s ballerina
Side By Side
here we are
so similar and yet
unreservedly different
We Each Bloom In Our Own Time
unique
to each individual
the perfect timing
Each And All Of It
so often
the garden reveals how
the whole is more than the sum of parts
Before The Opening
as enchanting as
the flower in bloom
is its prequel
What If?
we let wonder
unfurl as easily
as questions
One Among Many
oh to be a petal
in a community
that is a flower
Repetition
hens and chicks
multiplying themselves
hue after hue
Expressions
the violas smile
so fresh and full
revel in their joyful greeting
Her Majesty
she wears
a crown of raindrops
crocus queen of spring
How To Strut In Place
like a peacock
pussy willow fans
its fuzzy plumage
Always With A Flourish
nothing
is ever too old
for the delight of ruffles
Brightened By
a joy like the joy
of seeing an old friend
the cheering effect of pansies
Right Angles
nature
the master
mathematician
Leave-taking
nearly translucent
the unveiling of
beauty’s fragility
More Then A Leaf
up close
you are a
home grown Rothko
Masquerade
small pruned branch
with fungi cap
mushroom imposter
Marvel
an icy lace
melting and magnifying
making a mosaic of Monday
Frond
a ray of light reached into the kitchen
highlighting every detail
of your design
