azalea
         perfumes
         the lawn
time

 natural

chimera

fucshia azalea
                                           clings limply to sodden branch --

Genitallia on an Azalia

Remember taking a cruise to Australia;
And I did  forget to bring my genetalia;
Gently put down;
Without a sound;
Were found lying on a flowering azalea.

Jim Horn

Ate you laughing. A smile would be helpful....

azalea blossoms
fuchsia, pink, white, red --
bees are buzzing

hummingbird flutters
near backyard feeder--
hello again

pollen in the air
allergies are flaring--
warmer days and nights

Azalea plant, so baby new and blooming.
Bluebell flowers, quietly looming.
Carnations, the flowers of the dance.
Daffodils, in memory of the lost in the Holocaust.
Evening Primrose, so softly~~God embossed!

in the midst of death-
                                  lichens come to life
    (moniku)

this summer morning-

azalea perfume hints

& yellows the lawn

   (hiku)

with buzzard on high
o'er fields prairie dry
walnut ripen in husks
the afternoon turns to dusk

I
planted
memories
in my daughter's
lovely spring garden
holly spiked red berries
baby pink azalea dreams
all the bushes that once adorned
a home I had to somehow part with
now will grow here remembering the love

Azalea of new
Bring the cornflower New
Evening Sun absorbed by the Glory of the snow
Calling upon the peach blossom slow
Ever the Lilacs are mixed fair
Dote on the Gerberas over there
Abridge and count petals of a Greater Celandine
Round about the Croas shines
Irises smile
At the Spoonwood for a mile
Nearing the sweet pea as Axalea of New.

Ladybug, my Ladybug,
Large you're not and not a slug.
Leaves you-leap to so cute my little bug.
Like Strawberry wings does my heart you tug.
Light and small you are zephyr does snug.
Lawn and garden blooms you hug.
Lace azalea on leaf underside does shrug,
Last the spider looking so smug.
Ladybug, you’re my little Ladybug,

   Down where azalea blooms linger
Creek's rhythm leads bird the singer
After the storm exposed gnarled, twisted roots

Swiftly creek's water still runs, love
We could float to the gulf, dove
Better to be freed altogether though

Strong wings lift the spirit to heights.
We never dreamed in our times of flight.
Again, let down, our dreams dissipate  ...

BUTTERFLIES RETURN
After the storm azalea perfumes
the lawn yellow., the bay tree
curtseys low,the copper stirs
and a firecrest alights upon
the smoke tree. Butterflies return
to sun,weed covers the pond,here
and there  the ceanthus coloured blue
stops the honey bee in its tracks.Ivy
climbs the wall un noticed,the peony
all dressed in white fragrants the air.
