Angels' trumpets in full bloom
visible from living room.
Datura's lend their royal hue
complimenting high church's view
of advent colors. Speaking of Advent
it's strange, but this year I've had more comments
on my Christmas Cactus's promising swell.
Usually people don't notice 'till in full bloom, well,
we're on the verge of twenty twelve
and who knows what we'll find on each others' shelves?
Potted poinsettias outside in shade quite neglected all year
don't pout, they come inside now to fancy up and lend cheer.
