whimsey

Red Stocking

hosiery for faires
who must decide
for fashion or for gifts

scaredy cat
in red high heels
protecting herbs from birds

wood elves
hang their hats
on the birch

discarded
by a fairy
after the down pour

a bauble of tiny blooms
an effervescence
of delight

aspire
to be added to
stone soup

pull the antler
door handle
to know
what resides within

It is the magic of care and whimsey
that moves you from spot to spot
to enjoy the views of the garden.
