Fading Hibiscus

Fading pink Petals, 
Resolute to die,drooping 
Towards gravel grave.
Sprinklers cast,their last goodbye,
Daybreak:whites now your color.

Hello My Name Is

Majestic as the blue shaded sea
mysterious as a sunset
gentle as the summer breeze
magnificent as an orange hibiscus
and the Spanish cousin of the word "mine"

down by the blue lake
the pink faerie elongates
feeling rather small
underneath the umbrella
of the rosemallow forest

hibiscus blossoms
whipped by wild tropical winds . . .
flower flamencos
in pink, yellow and coral
dance in the flaming sunset

Beauty

At the dawn 
After vanishing darkness, 
Brightly dressed 
Hibiscus flower 
Inquired the dragon fly
Who said I am beautiful?
Not me, those who expect something from you!

A Quatrain

The night in the wine the hands pouring 
The dawn on the hibiscus on the hair-bun 
Afternoon at the walnut shadows ever growing 
Evening with the sounds of bangles, no gun

Premium Member A Red Uprising

a wealth of rubies
cardinals among berries
red hibiscus bloom

crimson sun sinking
leaving vivid trails of fire
on scarlet roses

dragonflies emerge
going everywhere, silent
on soft carmine wings

Passions Flower

Passions Flower

Hibiscus
no wall-flower you.
Nor Nosegay laurel.
Not wormwood at virgin’s-bower.
So sweet William 
seeing Venus’s looking-glass
discovers a Passion-flower.

Premium Member Hibiscus

Hues of pink, yellow, red
  How sweet its nectar flows 
  Hovering above it
  Hummingbirds sweetly sip
  Honey bees can't resist
  Here comes a butterfly
  Hurrying for a taste!

Premium Member A Red Hibiscus

A red hibiscus as pretty as can be,
Thrives on my porch for all to see.
The blooms are spectacular but quickly die,
They are carpe diem personified.

Hiding Behind a Hibiscus

Hiding Behind A Hibiscus

Had been hiding behind a hibiscus
When we planned on being promiscuous
Can your imagine her big breasts
Looked just like two bird nests;
Did discover flower was deciduous.

Hibiscus

Hibiscus
Blooms today,
Withers tomorrow.
Gorgeous color,
Lives just one day.
What a pity!
Why not stay?
It has no worry,
Nature was made.
When it’s alive,
It lives fully.
Gives it all,
For Creator’s glory!

Premium Member Calling All Butterflies

calling butterflies to the tropics
orchids, hibiscus, bromeliad, clivia,
lovely red hot cattails
raring to show off their flamboyancy
brilliant colors
fragrance usually only found in the tropics
welcome monarchs!

Premium Member Entranced by Beautiful Painting

the painting popped like fiber optics
like fluorescents, like neon acrylics
in hot pinks, magentas, turquoise and tangerines
with the precise amount of purples to make the hibiscus glow
I was entranced by this beauty!

Creative Union

Acknowledging with a nodding head
Beautiful hibiscus and its bugle 
Coming in the close embrace of
Drops of early autumn downpour 
Euphoria of the innovative union
Flood of delight on the dawn's face

Hibiscus

In the background as I walk
Her voice decorates the scene
The soft spate of her breath
In the background as I walk
All falls serene when she talks
‘Twas an honor unforeseen
In the background as I walk
Her voice decorates the scene

Different Renderings

You were lost
like a rolled away pill.
Hibiscus was waiting

        *

As the night departs,
I will look at the moon
through misted eyes.

        *

A bridge has collapsed.
How sad.
A bell tolls endlessly.

A Sketch

Hibiscus drooped, sheds
Petals in the gust of rain ...
A broken heart dies

Swallows swivel rain
Above water stifled grass .. .
Memories of joy

Light covers the earth
And dust make rainbows appear ...
I am that poem

Sky and tablecloth of stars.

Planting Texas Star Hibiscus Seed

Lightly scuff the seeds with sandpaper or a file 
and soak overnight. Then plant in the ground 
or in containers or both.  If in the ground,
mark the spot so you remember where you 
planted as some may wait until Spring to 
germinate. Good luck.
