Around the Garden

Around The Garden      ( series)

Hi Biscus, What’s new?
You seem to be fat.
Your leaves nice dark green
Trimming bit slack.
You won springtime’s race
The first that I see
Glorious Reds
Trumpet to me. 
Majestic and proud
But just for a day
Tomorrow you’re gone
I guess it’s God’s way.

See, this is the problem, dear heart, my Spring is just beginning, not even a hint of a flower or a leaf, so this is very painful for me to read.. but I love it just the same... love Constance

What a lovely flower for your garden. Majestic as you said. We had beautiful hibiscus growing in our yard when I was a child. Later in life, I was able to keep some alive in North Florida, too. Jerilynn, here's a little picture gift for you enjoy looking at...one of my photographs. (It needs a little more work and it's upside down, but the flower is beautiful.) http://daneann.redbubble.com/sets/74236/works/3298082-2-fancy-fringed-delight Smiles, Dane Ann
