Florescence Day 18

well, they’ve all gone to seed,
their balding heads, puff freed,
far from dandy, indeed, blown to hell

Florescence Day 18 for Jane Dougherty’s Poem a Day Challenge. The dandelions are so pretty…until they are not. Beauty is fleeting, indeed. 😉

oh how graceful they fly
on wings through the sky
as I watch them, I sigh from below

First Blooms – A Tanka

cultivated plots
are a gardener’s cachet
but Gaia’s first blooms
burst through concrete, cling to walls
vagabonds in dapper hues

and the earth blooms, its vespers,
spring’s fragrant, first breath.

Monday Magnets

my garden is
a symphony of
weeds and rocks;
a purple sea of
sweet petal spray
whispering on
the wind
