The humble turnip reveals
all the beauty, all the struggle
of life.
Harvest
As the workers toil in the carpet of sage
they hum and buzz their dictum
“from each according to their abilities, to each according to their needs”
Magic Wands
Fairy dust is gathered on magic wands
and used to clean away all ugliness
of sight, word and deed.
Lupin
A meeting of friends in the meadow.
Quaker Bonnets gather
offering their quiet beauty to the whole of the land.
Fleur-de-lis
Noble in color, royal in birthright
Iris is the garden’s rainbow goddess.
Traveler’s Joy
Darling of the door yard garden
clematis climbs up and along the picket fence;
most brilliant and ingenious buttercup.
Wild Purple
Both leaf and petal wear purple proudly
borrowing from violet, lilac and mulberry.
Hyacinth Octopus
Blossoming tentacles
scent the air
as they search for Spring.
