Brush With Beauty
~*Marge Tindal*~

In the glory of this bush
there are such exotic hues
Growing in the woodlands
with beauteous imbue~

Irridescent berries
call the birds to dine
This bushing beauty wild
is a favorite of mine~

*Beauty Bush
Callicarpa americana
American Beauty Berry, French Mulberry

the spirit rejoices over what it has left.

Nature in the wild with all her beauty. And what exquisitely brilliant colors.

I do not know this bush, so I thank you for the lesson.

Here we go 'round the mulberry bush,
The mulberry bush,
The mulberry bush.
Here we go 'round the mulberry bush,
So early in the morning.

This is the way we write our poems,
Write our poems,
Write our poems.
This is the way we write our poems,
So early Sunday morning.

lol

Loved the vivid colors...
Loved the poem even more!
Great Job Marge!

A lovely visual Marge and a clever write. I am intrigued by your use of the word "Imbue".

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

Thank you all for enjoying this beauty with me~

Nature just gives us such gorgeous things to decorate our lives~

Aha ... so sir, you like, yes ?

im·bue
tr.v. im·bued, im·bu·ing, im·bues
To inspire or influence thoroughly; pervade: work imbued with the revolutionary spirit.
To permeate or saturate.
To stain or dye deeply.

I went for the effect of the saturation of deep color ... the stain of the purple~
Thank you~

I can see why this bush would be
a favorite of yours. It's gorgeous.
Glad I stumbled across this tonight.
