Lagniappe
Wide plantation shutters open
With the laziness of
Summered streams
To blink against the shimmering reflections
Of brilliant midday
Dancing on the cobblestones,
Mingling
With the scent of summer lilacs,
Rising
With its bon ami
At the wedding of the dawn
and dusk,
When live oaks
stretch
across broad avenues
To join their hands in shady arches -
Stately guardians
Holding off the power
Of the sun -
Weaving lacy shadows
On the sidewalks
and wide boulevards
Where two sisters meet –
One light as morning
Amber eyes of fiery gold,
One with hair touched by the autumn
Dark eyes deep as midnight shadows -
Gifting lagniappes of affection in
Sweet bouquets of southern honeysuckle
And
Nosegays filled with satin daphne -
Shared in greeting,
Cherished in receiving
As summer's sweet perfume
Entwined about the roses,
Saved
In bands of yellowing lace,
To walk now arm in arm
Under eyelet parasols
Exchanging letters,
Wrapped in satin ribbons,
Strolling through
The winding lanes of secret byways
Sharing sweet beignets
In quiet cafes
In the ete afternoon
While a playful
Huckleberry breeze
Catches emerald ribbons
Floating
From the brims of summer straw hats,
Ruffling petticoats,
Lacy as the Spanish moss
Swaying in the eddies of the air,
Until the jasmined sigh of evening
Mingles with the rising dews
Of the deeply running river
To call them back into the twilight mists,
In reveries for yet another day.

Beautiful first spring day
Bountiful sun then may rain
Be happy spring comes after winter gray
Bright sunshine glows like golden grain
Enticing spring is here again at last
Enchanting sights of so much beauty and renewal
Every ray of sun illuminates everything so fast
Entire sky is now so blue like a precious jewel
Now new and wonderful changes after winter and snow
Nurturing beauty of spring is such a sight
Nosegays and roses buds sees them all grow
Nice time to relax and enjoy the spring night
On and on my Master has created spring for us all
Orchids, roses, tulips and so many beautiful things to enjoy
Ocean and mountains during spring season stand tall
Outside there's a wonderful weather for all girls and boys.

Harvest of Stars
Look up!
Sparkling autumn stars above swirl in the Milky Way
Glittering umber, gold and fire of astral leaves
Streak through star dust of light years
Twirling in the gradual autumnal transition sway
Under falling aster stars born of spring lion’s light
Missing now the summer song of swan and lyre
New the frosty Sculptor to crisp nights.
Look up!
From galaxy fields fiery stellar artistry gathers fruit -
Silhouettes with cosmic bits like crystal dew -
Ripening in celestial orchards, the southern autumn’s hiatus,
Gleaned in abundant harvests of astral constellations
Ride twinkling Pegasus across the Centauri season
When Soul and Heart nebula nosegays seed the hunter’s stars
Where silence echoes ebony implosions.

Sweet Daphne Odora
Beneath midwinter’s misty veils of rain and snow
Sweet Daphne Odora thrives
Evergreen when silver winds bid Orion return
Winter’s child blooms through short days and lingering nights –
Harbinger of crocus and of snowdrops –
Deep green spear shaped leaves edged in yellow -
Prophetic sign of spring sunshine –
Like a delicate bridal bouquet
Offers dainty nosegays in clusters
Of iridescent white satin or silky pink
Edged in royal purple robes,
A January Valentine
When icicles drip with midwinter tears,
Peeks through the icy breath of frozen air
Spreads a perfume intoxicating and unforgettable
Superstar of the barren season –
Finicky and feisty
Warrior of the bleak winter garden
Sweet Daphne Odora!

The flowers I see free my mind
Pretty flowers in a row, red and green
Pretty flowers in the field that I find
I’ll send to a friend in a dream
If I keep seeing tulips and roses
I know my garden will come
With pansies, nosegays and lilies
I know that I have a green thumb
I’ll even plant orchids to be droll
Pretty ones that run up a pole
Pretty flowers give power to my eyes
Giving me visions of a new, better time
Where magnolias and dahlias come to bloom
And birds of paradise are in every room
And I especially embrace yellow roses
They perk up the eyes, stir up our noses
Pretty flowers will exude love
The flowers I see free my mind
