Premium Member Sassy Forget Me Not

light periwinkle blue
with yellow face
she draws butterflies

she can be ground cover
prefers cool climate
found in woodlands

tolerant of rabbits and deer
reseeds herself
spreading her prettiness


Premium Member Maybe Spring

The purple ground cover came up overnight
Miraculously covering the yard in blankets
I step gingerly, coaxing winter daisies to take a hint
Sidestep a teeny white violet, a motorcycle sound in the distance.

Premium Member Haiku Harvest

HAIKU HARVEST

picnic table bare
ground cover heavy with leaves
a flash of jay blue

leaves turned brown
heaven of twigs
sassy squirrel digging

house eaves in shadow
blue sky poking through
sparrows all puffed up

late november
cardinal
    like bloody spot

post halloween
scarecrow in tatters
candy wrappers
Form: Haiku

Birdsville Sanctuary

My neighbour
wondered where all the birds were going to
"to my yard,"
I replied
the Cockatoos for the green almonds
Blackbirds and Mynas for ground cover insects
Crows bark-scavenging for borers and tree worms
Honeyeaters fighting all comers for flowering red gums pollen
Pigeons fossicking the soil minding their own business
to finish giant Fruit Bats
some say escapees from a botanical gardens cull
add a creepy aura at night.

Premium Member GLORIOUS FALL

GLORIOUS FALL

Fall’s the time of year I can hear,
whispers of warmth retire.
Watch trees undress their fiery hues,
branches shed … their attire.

Sun ignites all of Fall’s glory,
those beyond falling leaves,
Ones that paint abstract ground cover,
over … the roots of trees.

Walking beneath Golden Gingko
kicking up it’s gold leaves.
Not lady like way, walk to work
kicking leaves … high as knees.

Harvest moon celestial gleams,
in Fall ... back lights my dreams.
