On Flower Road

w c

On Flower Road

 

With the bluebonnets on the road

There too the paintbrush grows

With the scene from a car

Of red and blue near and far

 

The mowers mow many hours

Careful not to cut the flowers

And make the roadside pretty to see

For the likes of all traveling

 

Along the road there are deer

Beautiful with the flowers near

Doe in the morning and again at dusk

At the grass green and lush

 

Sometimes the flowers wilt in heat

To be revived each evening

And with the clover perk back up

There too with the buttercup

 

Some cars stop beside the road

To take pictures where the flowers grow

And there appreciate

All the flowers looking great

 

When the journey is very long

There are rest areas as they go along

And when stopped they walk a bit

Amongst the flowers for their trip

    Good write and pic w c. We have a small Bluebell Wood near us. Can't see the bluebells though, mind you. Tracks are overgrown, and can't walk through all the wood now.

      Bluebonnets are really pretty and are everywhere here in Texas as they are the state flower and are protected. The paintbrushes are also common and are a sight to behold.
