Golden Rose

A golden rose was just what I needed today, the day after surgery to my gut. Four incisions healing nicely. Lavender’s beautiful words, especially “a sniff of summer apricot tart” made this sublime. Hope you like it, too. Have a magical day.

Lavender Moon: Artist, Poet and Lover of Nature

A golden rose entices your nose,

closer to Iits glowing heart.

A sniff of summer apricot tart,

Smiling barley corn fields

And high fluttering larks,

Lulling you out of the dark.
This beautiful rose was planted in spring and is happily flowering, delighting hearts. 🙂

Too Quick

Trip-trap
along the path
finding dust,
twigs, bees
and green
dappled light
betwixt the trees. Continue reading →

Riddle Reader Beware

If looks can kill,
this plant wouldn’t,
although, it’s bold, rash
and may drive riddle
readers mad. Continue reading →

Syringa

The scent of lilac and the music of spring. Seedbud has a magic touch with her photos and words.

Leaf And Twig

lavender notes
lilac’s music carries us
to fairyland

Happy July 4th!

Happy Red, White and Blue from the flowers!
Happy Poetry Friday!
Here is a poem of joy for you:

My Heart Leaps Up

My heart leaps up when I behold
A rainbow in the sky:
So was it when my life began;
So is it now I am a man;
So be it when I shall grow old,
Or let me die!
Read the rest here.

— William Wordsworth

May you experience the joy and magic of being with family.

Thanks to Tabatha Yeatts for hosting his week!
Stop by and read more poetry if you have time.

Fothergilla Geese

flightless white geese
milky swirls of thin petals
perch on lily pads

Note: These blooms are dwarf Fothergilla, cousin to Witch Hazel. Fothergilla gardenii were discovered here by Alexander Garden (1730-1791) a Scottish physician and naturalist who introduced them to England. What a great name he had for his profession.
