Coreopsis climbs upward
steep slopes threatening to stop
clinging thoughts follow

the ascent of hearts follows
eyes seeking a higher place

Something follows sun
seeking yet a higher place
hitherto, they climb

Seasons come, and seasoned, all
follow dreams only they know

~*~

Smiling at you,
and thanking you, m'friend,
for the inspiration!

Kacy

These thoughts contain gold
Like found in coreopsis
That bloom all summer

The flowers of these two hearts
We hope will constant blossom

enjoyed

Thanks! Coreopsis grows all over the hillsides of southern California, and my hiking days were always brightened by these hardy colorful cliff hangers.
