Summer Dance -2014
Garden thrived
without the gardener
like a forest
seeds that fell last year
burgeoned.....
As we tend
to our new grand baby
and life's timely demands
the passion found
its way through
the hotchilies & curry
leaves' hardystems to shoot
purple blooms for the bumble bees
The long beans smile carefreeand purple
to yield their slender pods
entwined by the redness of hearts
the leaves that purple yams proudly display
their ridged stems reach upwards
gracefully like the delicate hands
of a twirling balerina
The Roses of sharon applaude
from their luxury booth under the shade
dressed in their layers of chiffons!
