Flowers
Spring season is here.
Buds and blossoms are blooming,
We smile, also sneeze.
…
After the rainstorms,
a wildflower super bloom.
Botanical binge!
…
Woodland wild wonder,
iris douglasiana.
Praising in purple.
…
Effusive iris,
we welcome your wild beauty.
No need to tame it.
…
April opening,
semi disguised, quiet, white.
Seven brand new buds.
…
The blossom petals,
pale, soft, smooth, tiny, tender,
glow in the dark night.
…
Playing hide and seek,
fairy slipper’s tiny bloom
makes long hikes worthwhile.
Pretty in purple.
Bloomed in silence, among pines.
She’s aging solo.
…
While gaze in the clouds,
pussy ears hello below.
Almost stepped on it.
…
Star-shaped wildflowers.
They simply are as they are.
No comparisons.
…
Redwood lily bloom.
Deer’s sweet snack, hikers’ delight.
Who will find her first?
…
Wow, wild columbine!
Your tender revelation
a sublime surprise.
…
Ah, hydrangea!
Almost indescribable
beauty beyond words.
…
Oh, quilted blossoms!
On you rests our tired gaze.
Gaia's handiwork.
…
Mmm, rose blossoms bunch!
Color, fragrance potpourri,
from bud to full bloom.
…
Long-lasting blue bloom!
You restore my faith in life.
Agapanthus, thanks.
…
This morning, wistful
wisteria brought me back.
Life, beauty now, here.
…
Red geranium,
liberate my loneliness.
Tell me about God.
…
Sigh, lovely queen tears,
bubble gum stems, rainbow blooms.
Why are you crying?
Elegant leafage,
your flowers, dangling tassels.
Are yours, tears of joy?
…
Bird of paradise:
flora, fauna, all-in-one.
Showy drama queen.
…
The bearded iris
has rhizomes that can't be mulched.
Yes, we weed. Worthwhile.
…
One weed at a time.
To dig for the root and pull.
Day in and day out.
…
Weeds as ground cover.
Unexpected sprout of life.
Unwelcome visit.
…
Fierce climbing ivy,
among and beyond the weeds,
show off your brave feats.
Threading the wild weeds,
implausible place and time.
Just like joy pops up.
…
Drought, hot summer, sun.
an improbable sprouting.
Just as joyfulness.
