The fresh scent of

And strewn on the streets
Of Northend.

Exquisite purple droplets
The jacaranda tree weeps
Wet purple kisses
 A welcome shower of love

Thy being's grace
Is pleasant to behold -
As beautiful as
The jacaranda
When its blooms
On some April day unfold.
Blessed be the one
Who keeps thy aura....

If I could choose
a burial ground
I'd rather a field
of freshly mown grass
bordered by lavender hedges
of colour and perfume
and my headstone
a giant purple jacaranda
in full bloom....

Join me in paradise
jostled loose from my dreams.
Journey to barefoot sands.
Jewels of turquoise gleam,
jaunting free in warm waves. 
Jacaranda-kissed breeze  
jogs memories of love.

I lay in a
Sea of purple
These petals
That have fallen
From this tree
its mighty branches
Reaching up
Now naked
Toward the sky
Its dropped its
Last flowers
Now a circle
Of purple
On a sea
Of green
Under a 
Blue sky
This
Jacaranda
And me...

Each year in May, as Jacarandas bloom,
A  carpet of sky is strewn across the grass.
Mother Nature  wears her  delft costume,
With  a breezy sweet perfume  none  can  surpass.
And we beneath these blossomed boughs assume,
true love  upon a bed of azure  petals....

Your sudden dome, like purple popcorn,
erupts as crochet-baubles:
Nanna-graffiti in a tree.

Underneath, dizzy bees stagger 
in your fallen floral wealth.

Jacaranda on a spree: you herald heat, 
cicadas, and thunderstorms 
that will trash your lavish treasure.

It's May for Jacaranda trees,
We laugh in purple in the breeze...
Bulldozers bite.
 
We dare to say "HELLO" to bees
and make the toddlers laugh and sneeze...
Construction site.
 
Landscaping Nature as you please
Requires coldness - Soul's disease.
This is my fight!

Paradiesvögel balzen
Im Astwerk des Jacarandasbaumes
Farbenspiel zwischen Blüten

Im Wasser des nahen Sees
Suchen Wasserbüffel Kühlung



Birds of Paradise's pairing time 
In the branches of a Jacaranda
Opalescence of colours

In the water of the near lake
Water buffalooes look for cooling...

my sorrow bears
leaves of jacaranda
purple eyes the flower,


the fear,
a dank damp cloth of night
covered my face


smothering


the lust
that quivered 
a human lake


moving


a specter’s hands
stole Mercury’s face
of banality


together


the fear, 
of hands
that lust 


disassembled...

I am a tree
Sturdy and strong
I am as glorious as can be
I have to cope with
Pain and strain
From extreme heat
To torrential rain
I am very well aware 
Of the need for
Love and care
Seasons change
So do I
Just like humans
I will die
But before this happens to me
I spread my branches
Out to thee
So you can all
Have a gander
I am a magnificent
JACARANDA...

The flirting and buzzing of the Bumblebees,
From Frangipani to Scarlet Monarda.
Nature flourished with new and Kelly green trees,
Me enjoying a bowl of fresh Mostarda.
Everywhere new, everywhere lush green one sees,
Birds chirping in the shade of Jacaranda.
It is the season to rejoice, to welcome,
Queen of all Seasons we enjoy you fulsome.

At rehab the angels of sobriety made me write the word Love in the soil with

Jacaranda petals the colour of indigo from a rainbow and crown chakra in waiting

‘There was a beautiful soul here who drew a Heart of same petals on the lawn’

I flew like a bee to sweet honey to a visiting Queen of Fairy Tale Land unaware

That She was the synchronous painter a kind Universe sent as soulmate and wife

A lovely swing love laid
Under the cool mahogany shade
Pink jacaranda stood with glee
Breeze visited from tidal sea
Excited arms swayed silken hope
Freely because of no rope
Like the grazing golden deer
A story of resplendent air
Waiting with a restless ear
Lilting sounds from your hair

"a breezy yet comfortable autumn day...ah, so lovely!" - quote by poet.


   his eyes flutter shut a fistful of minutes, 
    a much welcome respite into himself. 
 he sits in the shadow of a jacaranda tree.
 as he listens to the mutters of dry foliage, 
  a lone nightingale - nature's crown jewel -
cheerfully tweets sonorous melodies for him; 
      it's as if he's entered heaven's gate.

It's windy out there, and our old garden chair
just went flying across the veranda
it flew over the wall with a bag and a ball
and lodged in the old jacaranda.

then out in the street you can't keep your feet
it blows you all over the place
I turned round to see something heading for me
and got an old boot in my face

so I'm going inside, to drink tea and hide
till the wind has gone into recess
then when it's all done, and we see the sun
I can go out and clean up the mess...
