~* For Our Flower Lady Martie ~

~~

Roses, begonias,
lupine, ferns, and ivy.
Iris, and baby's breath,

*
~~


A whiff of sweet peas,
playing on your sense of smell.
Pansies strum along.

*
~~


Countryside colors.
She creates joy with flowers,
Using nature’s brush.

*
~~


Tied with a ribbon
A symphony of good cheer
Made for July fourth.

*
~~

A HUG AND HAPPY 4th OF JULY!

Mysteria! Martie will adore this, and I'll take money to the bank that she will print it out in color and post it where most appropriate...on the door of her flower shop!

Thank you for reading and enjoying this bouquet of haikus, and if I made you smile that is all that counts!
Well I love flowers, appreciate Martie's poetry,it was the 4th of July. I could use "Where Have All The Flowers Gone" which reminds me of our vets, so how much fun did I have doing this for one our Grande Dames' of Poetry at Pipps, well shucks - tons! And Martie...it was meant to give you smile as I know how busy you must be with your lovely flowers, and no one realizes what hard work it is.

If I have made you smile today, then I have done my job! ~* Mysteria *~

this was wonderful, mysteria, and doubly because I heard the most wonderful children's story 8 days ago and I've wanted a picture of a rose and a rosebud and I found it at the website you used for these pics

thank you doubly for sharing this one with us!!!
