#DailyFlowers
The blogger has had a strange week. No sooner did rhymes, descriptions start to fall in place in mind, the Gods of All things decided to turn things topsy-turvy! If it wasn't one thing, it was the other. Into the cauldron add, a badly spasming back, a trigger shoulder fascia, a small tumble for mom and the resultant need to get her back on her feet quick! Which was accomplished but did no favors to back & shoulder. I finally decided Saturday morning was D-Day, but the local fire chief had other ideas
The blogger was ready for a relaxed breakfast
After which she would offer the readers a repast
But the local fire chief had other notions
In the complex, put he a fire drill into motion
Saturday early morning, our presence was sought
As the local fire team ran a drill to show how fire's fought
Full two hours observing that drill we spent
Towards fire fighting steps our brains were bent
Rhymes, stanzas, verses into the void vamoosed
All eyes were on the forklift's caboose
The red and yellow did seem to say
All eyes only my way!
Well, after that was done, the blogger sat down to rhyme, but regular housework snatched her time, so in the evening doth she sit, hoping they will be no more hits. Flowers are arranged, the lines need to fall in place and another post needs to fill its designed space.
Freda aunty sent in some truly wondrous gems
They grace their spaces heads bobbing on stems
Reds, pinks, yellows, blues bloomed in abandon gay
Rulers of all they could see and survey
Nature it seems has many stories to tell
Through her varied colors she does it so well
Whether it be pinks hanging on the wall
Or that amazing fuchsia standing tall
Whether petals be arranged on a plate or on the ground
Her magnificence all around us does abound
Two colors at once shy and yet so bold
Laying close to earth or reaching for the sky
These two teach us our energies to rightly apply
Nature's colors are truly glorious
They make her play seem effortless and not laborious
But did you ever stop and think
We see them and then we blink
Images absorbed and then lost
Do we even understand their cost
Giving their names he shows us how much he cares
Day after day, beauties shine brightly
Their structures, rhythms seem so sprightly
Would that we could their spirit imbibe
No other pill would any doctor need to prescribe
Ophiopogon jaburan/SnakeBeard/Whitelilyturf/AztecGrass
& Prosopis Juliflora
