fleshy red petals
catch the light
which draws us in
to the dark centre
Flower Photography
Side by side
twin sisters
turn their faces
up to the camera.
One is more forward
slightly edging out
the other.
Revealed
Rubble
set in concrete
for my feet to tread …
up close
each tiny pebble
becomes a jewel.
Far from the Sea
Far from the sea
I conjure it,
gazing at stones
which I magnify
into rocks,
on a concrete step
which becomes
a stretch of sand.
Contrasts
Through restful green
a tiny glimpse of pink:
the jade bush
on the balcony,
contained in its
orderly pot,
above the profusion
of bright geraniums.
Jade Plant
At my door
to bring me luck,
under the overhang
it grows spindly.
The leaves stretch
forward
seeking more light.
What a scenery.. Like pictures on an exhibition ... The concrete was a nice picture to write on connecting it to dreams of beaches.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I enjoyed that one best; I expect it shows. The flower photo really surprised me, the way it turned out.
Deleteif you had not titled that one sister flowers...it could have been a scene...really nice...like that one best i think...glad you had a second round of fun rosemary...
ReplyDeleteThanks, Brian. Perhaps I'll retitle it later.
DeleteLove that you came back and gave us so much more! This is amazing, and epic. Well done!
