Patterns of Nature

image

Emerging from the deep –
Eyes
In another mould
Pattern of creation
Replicated

Pink Peony

Bright Pink Flower

Basket of flowers
Being delivered today
Rush past my being
With no small delay

My heart wells up
My soul is touched
To have but a petal
In palm of hand clutched

My yearning is felt
A small gift breaks free
Released from its hold
Pink peony for me

I lurch through the crowd
Stem falls to the floor
My heart sings out loud
To my Creator once more

A poem from my book Passion Through Poetry, blogged here in honour of:
Pow go the peonies

Enveloped

Wrapped tightly in
Envelopes of green
A new flower forms

Taken with my iPhone 5

Greens and blues and brown and black
Whites and greys and shades of bright
Nature’s force is on display
In trees and leaves and birds and bees

Rain

The rain is falling
Humming soft musical tunes
Washing the world clean

Nature’s Beauty

The night shines beauty
Onto the most elegant
Of nature’s free gifts

Dandelion

As fragile as a
Spider’s web—dandelion’s
Vulnerability
