(there are no weeds, in nature
just verdure, waiting
for its understanding partner..)
\'The thorn bushes are free to thrive\'
all beauty needs protection
for it attracts, too much attention..
\'for now\'
indeed!
(thank you! dear poet
this was such a lovely read)

Thank you - and yes of course I\'d like too....they are all in Australia though. It\'s a migrating family.

You describe the passage of time well.
You can pass the seat down to the next generation.

Yellowcraigs: a sunny day in Scotland

99p cones
oh, that takes me back
thank you! what a gentle nudge
you gave to forgotten memories
shook them loose
and let me dwell, a little
in those sweet days, once again
(the power and gifts
of words, is truly limitless)

You\'re reminding me how much I miss those long summer days the further north you are. The years I lived in Bute, the summer nights were glorious. Seemed to go on forever.
Make the most of it.
Winter is never far away. :)

Oh thank you! Only, this being Scotland in June, the sand wasn\'t that warm! But I\'m not complaining!

A lovely picture to go with your ideal idea for a couple of fine haikus and thank you for sharing them here Morwenna - -- I could feel that warm sand beneath my feet.

Thank you, yes. That is exactly what I was thinking. Though even the very rich may well get their day in the fire.

It seems we\'ve passed co2 levels of 420 ppm. Unthinkable but now accepted. Where do we go from here?
The rich will always find places on the earth that are still inhabitable. They will always have a lovely day.

Our weather goddess
Morwenna said:
I will certainly toast those skies
Again today. A glass of red
For that changing cloudy,
Blue, grey, rainy, sunshiny
Sky.
Four seasons in a day in Scotland.
Today at the hillside
Of Dawck
Under the tall trees
And in the sweet scent of rhododendrons.
We admired the skies framing the lovely hills
Thank you dear LB
For taking time
To write a wee poem for me.

There a room like this in the ancestral mother house that we used to visit during summer holidays; down to the lichened stones and the heather overgrowth. The mind does wander off when there are no windows giving no feel of openness. Thanks for sharing.

I don\'t know the song - but yes very similar - except in my head in my scenario there isn\'t pain. Though of course there could be, since I left it so unspecifed.

your words remind me of a song
by jessie j, titled \'big white room\'
whose lyrics include:
\'Sitting in a big white room alone
Close the door
Don\'t want the pain to come in
I clench my fist
And try to stay strong
I cry, feel sick
My heart is beating out of control
Can I run run faster than you
I wanna feel my body again
Feel the wind in my hair
But I have to stay in this big white room
\'Cause no one else cares, no
I\'m going crazy
I\'m losing my mind\'
(thanks for sharing, dear poet
a relatable read)

The Old Gardener
MendedFences27 said:
I love this as it is. Would not change anything. \"The Old Gardener\" has a wealth of knowledge about plants and flowers, \" gleaning and gathering what he knows.\" He is a wise man. - Phil A.
P.S. - If you wish to have the \"new shoots\" serve as allegory for children then you would need to change the \"dark earth\" line. Perhaps \"Womb of the Earth\" or some such.

Blueledge said:
I have a friend (much older than me) who is successful with everything he grows where as I fail more often than succeed. Jealousy got the better of me one day so I left him a note.
It may give you some ideas. Or just make you smile.
Jim\'s lament
They say he had green fingers.
A gentleman known as Jim.
Then he met a giant
who tore him limb from limb.

We write. They read, and they interpret as they wish. The poet\'s intent may be crystal clear and yet be understood by some as otherwise. There are forms of language, dialects, phrases, dual meanings, translations and a host of other reasons why this happens. As a writer, we express from the deepest part of our being. We form it to the best of our ability. The rest is up to them.
Your poem, itself, shows the duality of meaning that language can endure. And you end it with \"I love you,\" maybe the most misunderstood phrase in the English language. What a powerhouse of verbalization you have created here. I loved it, whatever that means. Phil A.

Getting across through morphemic bridges stirs up within our receivers a praise or distaste of language- as users of language humans can be fickle about crossing those bridges. A worthy thought to explore and a worthier poem on which to engage. Thanks for sharing, Morwenna. /Rik.

Weeds and insects, two of the greatest symbols of endurance and determination. Surely, when all else is gone, only the weeds and insects will remain. You have given them true song. Now excuse me while I go spray my lawn.
It is a constant battle against the weeds and insects, and it seems they are winning. But for sure. they deserve your recognition and you have done it well. Some well woven words. - Phil A.

Excellent.
I often wonder what our cities would look like if left alone from humans for a period of time. Say at least 100 years. I\'d love to see how much nature would reclaim. Closest modern day exemple would be parts of the Chernobyl area.
