She was a good wife
Married for over 40 years
She was warm, considerate and always willing & able to help someone
Her talent was making beautiful, colorful gardens all around her property
She also donated her time to the arboretum
This year things have been different for her
She was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer
Her ability to work on the yard and create beautiful, majestic gardens have been impossible
She's very ill
She can't maneuver like she use to
Her husband doesn't have a green thumb
For the 1st time in over 40 years,...

False Flower
I was once a beautiful flower
Bursting with life
Petal were strong
Demanding all of you to keep me in your sight
Then one day, out of the blue
Another flower blooms
Right next to me, know who
I was in her shadow
I could not be seen
“Hey, I was here first.”
Why are you so mean?
Then a frost came
And she slowly started to go down
Why did it not affect me?
Why do I wear this frown?
She looked at me and with her last breath
Because we knew she was so close to death
“Do not be sad, you were...

bloom
the day awoke me slowly
with her vibrant vibrations, she lured me out of the sleepiness, of dreams
swaying in her energy, I open my eyes and look around me
trees utter wisdom
flowers in their beds, shook the dew from their dozy heads
slowly opening to the sunshine
while the day began her lessons for the day
shyness came to behold, the dawn
late for class, her mother admonished
the world is interactive, be kind to her she'll be kind to you
gentle understanding between a child and her mother
spark the child's imagination ...

Her

A Solitary Daisy
Planted along a worn rickety fence
In the front yard of a paint peeled white house
Stands a solitary daisy
Among blades of grass taller than she
A waft of her feint cheerful scent
Carried by the warm summer morning breeze
Brushes past me as I bend to bend to pick her
I am amazed at the simplicity she radiates
Graceful, dainty petals swaying
Strong, rooted stem giving way
I tenderly place her in my long, curly fire hair
Humbled by her innocence
I seemingly become to be as...

THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BLESSING
From the deepness of my thoughts and insight of my mind thoughts. 🤔 As I take this walk through the door way of the truth, that lingers in the deep dark deepness of my mind of memories never to be ever forgotten. 🤔 For as I continue to take this walk, I become free to be able to enjoy, this journey of no space or time. ⌚ For I noticed a statue surrounded by beautiful colors of flowers, yet there was an aura about this real moment of tranquility. For it is here and now, I can relate to this magical garden of paradise, with it's crystal clear waters shine still off the...

Feral Flowers
Wildflower secrets.
My feral heart beating deep.
Saunters crazily.

It's my Jefferson Airplane life
We're rounding the corner of 79th Street
Onyx and I
Making sure the coast is clear
She doesn't like busses
A bus stop is there
I could avoid the stop but...
She needs to get used to them
They're everywhere here
She's getting better
This isn't small town Texas
An adopted hound
We've had her close to 4 months now
It's early morning
Wind is calm and not as cold as usual
I'm thinking about poetry and DUP
All that it takes to write here now
Latest chapter is bots and privacy
Then I see some...

Satinpods
The honesty plants, standing still,
all sport a misty moonbeam glow
by quarter phase lunar halo
commanding her December chill
by hallowed fringe of sovereign gold
surrounded by a hint of peach
as if it had that tint to teach
these last few weeks of autumn cold,
where silver dollars, still standing,
are seemingly eager to earn
a lunar lesson where they learn
how to keep their coins blanding
and as transparent as a ghost...
where eidolon itself osmosed.

Too Intense
You're empathic
gentle & tender
sweet sensitive
compassionate
and creative yet
fragile vulnerable
eccentric cryptic
& complicated?
critics say you
are too intense
"difficult to love"
your lively being
can't be tamed &
you tried to change
adjust to society, its
crazy expectations
became voiceless
obedient & docile
let me tell you this
you my darling are
a magnificent orchid
precious and gorgeous ...

Perennials
While Contemplating the ins and outs of the perfect romance
i said, "yes" to this butterfly requesting a dance
She was tired of dancing alone between the drops of a recent shower
and I was tired of being and standing alone like a wallflower
We floated over to the edge of the garden dancing among the Roses
Waltzing among the Marigolds spinning in circles and rubbing noses
As we two stepped amongst Irises, making our way to the Begonias
There were Sunflowers ready to line dance as we separated from the Petunias
She whispered something into...
