COLOURFUL 

        Allium is raising king Spring’s alarm
        Easter red bud is shining in red glow.
        Freesia sending descent scent to flow.
       Crocus is spreading Spring’s first cheerful charm.
             
        Daffodils dance delight in decorum
        Hyacinths honor holy Spring to bow 
        Gorgeous Gardenia loves to grow.
        Begonia is beating loud Spring’s drum.
      
         Flowers not extra or season's burden.
         Iris idly smiles sweet and shyly nod
         Kangaroo paw beautifies mother tree.
      
        Marigold makes merry in Spring-Garden         
       Jasmine looks gracious as gift of God
       Dazzling Lilies glaze, smile and swing in glee.

Premium Member Sprays of Flowers For My Woven Basket

Bathing in the afterglow of sunset,
nature’s inflorescence meadows charm tread.
Sprays of flowers for my woven basket.

Gleam before the blooms fade and all forget.
Lavender, Daffodil, Take Me Instead!
Bathing in the afterglow of sunset.

Balm Jasmine, Hyacinth, Granny’s Bonnet,
slightest glow of early morning love shed.
Sprays of flowers for my woven basket.

Marigold, Primrose, at bay ... they trumpet,
raising spring voices in radiance bed.
Bathing in the afterglow of sunset.

Freesia, Begonia, nimbus duet,
rainbow chardonnay bouquet, insect fed.
Sprays of flowers for my woven basket.

Splashes of color for the daily fret,
nourishing aglow with warmth, grace breath spread.
Bathing in the afterglow of sunset.
Sprays of flowers for my woven basket.

Let Me Have It Then Kiss My Petunia

Love and Hate Relationship


You are so good at pushing that wrong button
You had my blood pressure boiling all of a sudden
How can you be so sarcastic
Your behavior can be so darn drastic
You start a fight and then you run away and leave
Turning your words around, misconceived
The tears you cry are nothing but fake
All is for yourself, you slithery snake
Then you send flowers, to make yourself look good
Always trying to get away with things, if you could you would

The words you speak, smooth as a poet
You know how to get your way, and you know it
You have a way about you, I melt like butter
Your one of a kind, unlike no other
Your skin so shiny, like a begonia
Your kisses are sweet, your my petunia
You protect your heart, but you give your soul
Your very good at damage control
Your tears flow, we melt as one
Your boundaries for a second, forgotton, another day has begun

Premium Member Misplaced In Maroon Mists

I’m feral like a fox
misplaced in the
maroon mists 
of wilderness,
only found in 
woeful woodland. 
My skin is blanketed
in crimson balmy
hyacinth feathers
from a 
forsaken rainforest. 

Misguided on 
delusional paths, 
where spring-tides 
mirror liquified colors
of warm diamond tears 
I’ve suppressed
behind ice blue sighs.

And I’ve seen
splintered petals
beneath thick-leaved
jewel orchids, 
that surrendered 
to greying leaves
on tainted twigs
and broken branches. 

I’ve walked through
fields of thorns
where the 
musky scent
of roses remained
a poison to 
my aching soul. 

So, why does it
feel like I’m chained
from vines of changes,
that suffocate
the sun within me, 
crucifying the fragility 
of premature 
begonia beginnings? 
Am I to follow 
the darkness,
to cast away the evil,
constantly pushing me
into a cave of 
cacophonous silence?

As I see beyond 
the gossamer veil,
hiding sharpened talons 
of treacherous eagles-
flying amongst 
vicious vampires;
emerald foes 
masked as friends, 
feeding my conscience
with cruel concoctions,
oblivious to the truth,
that I am a bark believer
of marigold miracles.

So let the 
steel black breeze
and the 
faceless ghosts
of fleeting time,
witness how I 
rise against
wicked wolves 
lurking behind
stars within
a chiffon laced 
canopy of nightfalls.

For, I am more
than the empty labels 
you’ve placed,
like the shame, 
I’ve buried beneath
lyrical lies drizzling
from vanilla skies.

Words are not enough
Language of April showers
Say it with flowers.

Gracious camellia
Daintily posing, but in vain
Begonia lost in thought.

Desirable
Hopes teeming with ambition
Of a stargazer.

From friendship to love
Exchanging yellow petals
With the deepest red.

Delicate beauty
Of hibiscus in full bloom
Inspires iris.

A blushing lilac
Unaware of dawning day
Dreaming of first love.

Bittersweet flower
Ever loyal to the end
Won’t betray a friend.

Parting time is near
Save the memories within
And forget-me-not.

Yellow hyacinth
With a heart that knows no peace
Nest of jealousy.

Morning breeze scatters  
The rich fragrance of jasmine’s  
Deep sensuality.

Coming of the Magi

Coming of the Magi
Matthew 2.1-12

Verse 1: “After Jesus was born in Bethlehem...Judea,
During the reign of King Herod, magi came [Yeshua],
From the east to Jerusalem. 2 They asked: [aroma],
‘Where is the newborn king of the Jews? [paranoia].

We’ve seen his star in the east, and we’ve [hernia],
Come to honor him.’ 3 When King Herod [gonna],
Heard this, he was troubled, and everyone [won’t ya],
In Jerusalem was troubled with him [trauma (Athena)].

4 He gathered all the chief priests and the legal [torah],
Experts and asked them where the Christ was [Amonia],
To be born [stroma]. 5 They said ‘In Bethlehem [krona],
Of Judea, for this is what the prophet wrote, [Adonia]:

6 “You, Bethlehem, land of Judah, by no means, [aqua],
Are you the least among the rulers of Judah [enterica], 
Because from you will come one who governs [insignia],
Who will shepherd my people Israel [loud n’ proud aura]”.

7 Then Herod secretly called for the magi and [drama],
Found out from them the time when the star [corona],
Had first appeared [prima]. 8 He sent them [begonia],
To Bethlehem, saying, “Go [n’] search carefully [beg ya]:

For the child. When you’ve found him, report [nihil mora],
To me so that I too may go and honor him.” Paronama].
9 When they heard the king, they went; and, [proxima],
Look, the star they had seen in the east went [comptonia] -

Ahead of them until it stood over the place [concordia],
Where the child was. 10 When they saw the star [folia],
They were filled with joy. 11 They entered the house [coxa],
And saw the child with Mary his mother [Collutorium gutta].

Falling to their knees, they honored him [phenomena].
Then they opened their treasure chests and [poma],
Presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense [aroma],
And myrr. Because they were warned in a dream, [gala] - 

Not to return to Herod [inca], they went back to [ok plasma],
Their own country by another route [elegantia (got ya!}].
I believe this is Matt 2.1-12, and know that you will lambda,
Because this trauma dealt with by the magi, was brahma.

Premium Member Harbinger Birds of Spring Potd

With the incoming sounds of spring, a resurrection of life,  
the chilliness flees. Quote _ by Poet 



Ready for a new season, Spring birds
Shake off winter; embracing 
The bonniest warmness weather,
Babies born, and color of nature's crowns.

Scarlet Tanagers chatter, flying round,
Feasting on caterpillar’s slowness 
And beetles boring away that are found; 

whilst
 
Eternal sunlight reft through sturdy limbs 
And myriad leaves of the mighty old oak; 
Rapid rhythm clatter drum sounds 
Of the Woodpecker on its breast shout.

A hum, a garden faintly woo a smile
At song sung by pretty red feather Robin dancing.

A sweet kiss, a seed, the male Cardinal
Feeds his blush pretty mate favor.

Yonder pond, tree boughs
Teasing the water's edge

Whilst

Little Mallard ducklings
Follow mamma to the bank.

Bluebird builds her nest
Right in the heart of the sprouting 
Redbud flowering tree.

Camouflage in the red begonia
An orange breasted Oriole
With its sweet enchanting sound.

On the horizon the fire fades out,
Hush around in high perch, tiny roosting
Cold blue moon comes into sight.

Premium Member Flowers Blooming Everywhere

I tiptoed through the tulips
And leapt over the lavender bed
I covered the ground in red rose petals
And laid out a picnic spread
I winked at the Black Eyed Susans
And flirted with the buttercups
I sipped my glass of dandelion wine
As my eyes drank all the beauty up

I patronized the pansies
And was mesmerized by marigolds
I assembled all the azaleas
Into my memory portfolio
I borrowed from the begonia
Her bouquet of wondrous smells
And listened for the tinkling
Of little silverbells

I was dazzled by the daffodils
Enjoying every one of them
And couldn’t take my eyes off
Of the blooming geranium
I snapped pictures of petunias
And was patient with the impatiens
I love the lily of the valley
Not to would be a sin

The garden is my canvas
Springtime her coming out
My favorite time of year
Of that there is no doubt

Glory of Garden

Mist veil in haze, winter unwraps,
A rejoice raptures in reverie of spring. 
Amber gold touch of Midas perhaps,
Bees and frilled petals in amorous cling.

A mystical harmony of beauty serene,
Magnolia and tulip, hum for butterfly.
Honeysuckle vines, squirrels in between,
Yellows and purple, rose cheeks feel shy.

Like peacocks bloom, begonia and pansy
Palettes of color, lush in vibrant green
Perfumed breeze...cadence lily in daisy
Petunia with marigold, in rollick are seen.

On canvas of soil, lyric paints a picture,
Sprouting prose...to poetry and sonnet.
Sowing seeds of love, Man nurtures Nature
In pride of his sweat, plants glitter on it.

The harvest of hoe, conjures a treasure 
In Glory of Garden, life is born to grow.
Landscape of spring, is short-lived pleasure
Maxim of death,.. in summer.., do they know?
