Needed

my sweet peas
bloom on the widow’s side
where they’re needed

Riotous

in the silence
of the morning frost
the mums dare riot

Mums

Faces to the Sun

I’m thinking summer today, to counteract the winter scene I’m seeing. 🙂

Brown-eyed susans
their faces follow the sun
to the end of summer

Holding the Sun

holding up the sun
with all its tiny moons
brave little stem

Echoes of Summer

geraniums bloom
all winter on the window sill
echoes of summer

Sunflowers

roadside sunflowers
leaning away from the rude wind
where has summer gone

Violets Galore

Careful! Don’t break off
the African violet leaves
Grandma always plants them

pearly stars in pastel tones
ancient healer

Seasons

child fingers the bud
youth, the velvet rose petals
age gathers the seeds

Lily Petals

white lily petals
does anyone gather them
as they fade and fall?
