SYMBIOSIS
22 April 2011

Petal of a day
summer-fragile
in pink blush,
blesses with fragrance
that is ever-remembered
in cat-eye-closed ecstasy,
blows against bark,
rough-textured
and earth-strong brown
and comforting
and there

We are at the moment in this clime
and territory between blush
and bushwack....as winter still
thinks it might hold...

I've known Aprils when it is 90....
and this April....tends to hold near the
60's....and that is giving it an upwardly
direction...

but your Symbiosis....doesn't curtail the
fact that our flora knows what's best...and
that is to beat against the current fact that
blooming is the quest!

Thanks, Karilea, but remember, I am in the Southern Hemisphere where the seasons are the opposite of the Northern Hemisphere so we are in Autumn now. In South Africa, particularly in Durban where I am, Spring and Autumn are almost imperceptible, and our Winters are mild compared to many regions of the USA.
