eyes- like willow trees; drooped in rain, become mimosas when the pain stops...

past the mimosas
two kids in a car
mama walks with them
they can legally drive on
the sidewalk and hold their cell

Underneath the mimosas,
arched and pink,
leaning on Summer, 
I slow down
good thing
a truck
in my lane
arrival time
In heaven paced

July saw you drinking mimosas
underneath a tree that wept shadows.
You were never one for cloudless days
by the sea. Silver wax over golden dust.
You are beginning to realize

when caught without the sun. 

Yet only the ocean can speak of love in any tense. 
Look at how it creates and destroys

The cheerful freesias peep
Out of the cold wet soil
And share their fruitful fragrance
With lovers of the moon.

Spring is already with us
Mimosas form their blooms
We celebrate Women's Day
And sprays will abound I'm sure.

Oh everyone is happy
Except our poor Josefa
Who works in snowbound Snowbird Utah
And yearn for our new spring blooms.

But dear Jo, how I do wish,
That Spring has never come
For already I'm sneezing
Spring fever is around....

Mango mimosas on the beach,
High tea on the terrace,
Fireside evening cocktails in the sand,
Experience a world as enchanting as this.

A paradise with white sand shores
And crystal clear waters,
Enjoy the serenity of island
And the freedom of our resort
Clothing is optional throughout.

In every outthrust headland,
In every curving beach,
In every grain of sand,
There is the story of the Earth

Sit in reverie,
Watch the changing color of the waves....
