wild abandon
a wilderness
of colors
Beauty’s Labor
dirty petals
gathered round
protecting color
Deceptive Delicacy
blooming through
the ferocious winter
beauty’s tenacity
On the Sideline
pompoms
of petaled color
cheering on fall
Deliciousness
hot chocolate
on a cool morning
scented dahlia
Told in Silence
quiet perfection
unfolding, unfolding
a rhythm of pink and cream
Pink Cyclone
whirlpool
of petals
color’s vortex
Sun Gazer
unblinking
the most tender of petals
will reveal all
Stop Light Dahlia
instruction
to look
carefully
Cream and Blue
sky and clouds
gather
in a flower
Alice’s Other Adventure
garden wonderland
falling up
the foxglove
Red Dahlia
vamping
in the rain
unabashed
Enchantment
magenta edged
curly girl
bewitches
Before the Unfurling
petals held
tight in a fist
gathering the courage to open
Wide Eyed
the daisy’s eye
unblinking
reflecting back beauty
In The Light
Oh! azalea
all a ruffle
beaming back the light
Splash
hot day
refreshed by
a splash of color
Purple Reign
purple crown
the sovereign rule
of poppy’s bloom
Columbine Consecration
garden prayers
in the morning light
a flowering devotion
Even With
her back turned
she cannot withhold
her beauty
Snow in Summer
as similar
and individual
as snowflakes
Reverie
inside
a house of colors
bee’s dream
Weather
petal storm
May blizzards
in flowers
Logarithmic Bloom
Fibonacci’s code
unfurling the golden mean
of beauty’s geometry
Romance
the blossom
in sunshine
lovers embrace
Beacon
in May’s blue sky
liberty’s torch
bears magnolia’s flame
First Out
up popped
snow drops
petaled exultation
Hydrangea Alighted
last year’s bloom
basking in
this spring’s sunshine
Cold Bloom
outside an arctic cold
warmed by the hot pink
of a houseplant’s bloom
Flower Found
a winter rose
pink petal bark
the birch in bloom
