BLUEBELLS REALLY DO FORM A SEA OF BLUE ~ AMEN !
I DREAMT the Bells were Ringing
But all that I could see
Were miles & miles of BLUEBELLS
Spread out like a Sea !
Their bright blue heads all JINGLING
And JANGLING in the breeze
A sea of blue ~ the brightest hue
Beneath the Woodland Trees !
Their scent it was so delicate
It took my breath away !
Now Im awake ~ My TEDDY I\'ll take
DOWN TO THE WOODS TODAY !
Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ Love BRIAN ๐งก
I know its unseasonal in Autumn but I love BLUEBELLS
and this is based on another POEM by our Friend Pat
and it was on Her Stall (with the Picture !) to raise money
for our local HOSPICE ! We can learn a lot about PLANTS
and PLANT ZONATION from BLUEBELL WOODS ! They love
the Sun and bloom early before the Trees are in full leaf.
They never grow under Evergreens or Beech because the
Mull & More is too acidic. Kids love them (and the stories
of BLUEBELL FAIRIES !) and they seem to appear overnight !
As soon as the tree canopy thickens and when competitive
plants appear (like nettles & brambles) they disappear until
the next spring. Like in Life (and Football !) English BLUEBELLS
have to compete with the Spanish ~ but maybe after BREXIT
they will all go back to BARCELONA ! Love BRIAN & ANGELA ๐๐งก๐๐งก
