Beautiful imagery, Maureen! Periwinkles are lovely flowers, though somewhat slow to grow from seeds. ~ Regards // paul

Thank you Paul! I'm actually not as familiar with the flower as I am the colour. You made me want to look it up... turns out it's a "tree killer" in Canada. I sowed my chicory from seeds I collected, they took a few years to establish. I am very proud of my weeds ;), xomo!

'Per' and 'par' - brilliant partnered line. Two matched 'i' sounds below.... 'open for the sun' is a terrific opening line. All come together to show us a responsive garden scene, each component influencing the next.
