Hopeful Nature

Season ends, zinnia!
Fertile, unborn bud has hope.
Stem curves, flower droops.

Lovely haiku, dear Hilda. Nature is ever hopeful. The unborn buds will germinate when congenial climate arrives.

How beautiful is the way you paint imagery in few syllables using such creative wordplay. Absolutely loved reading your work. Especially that last line

Thank you very much. I plant zinnias for the hummingbirds, but the hummingbirds have flown south by the time the zinnias wilt.

Another good written Haiku. I love flowers, but the only ones I grow are the ones only the freeze will kill. I do not have a green thumb.

I don't have a green thumb either. That is why 'my plant' is the yucca which grows wild. I have written a poem called Yucca. Try a native plant.
