The Last Flower of Summer
*************************
There in the border of green and brown;
This splash of bright colour,
The last flower of summer.
So bright and so beautifully coloured;
Yellow, pink and white;
Among the dull green leaves .
A view that shows life isn’t so dull;
In any life some brightness,
Can always be seen.
A sight that can cheer the most hardened hearts;
Showing that colour can be brought
To everybody’s mundane life.
This dahlia that has so much to say to me;
And maybe to you as well,
The last flower of summer.
*****************************
This is a very early poem of mine, written many years ago.

MECONOPSIS CAMBRICA
(The Welsh Poppy)
.
Endemic to our lands this gentle flower
with tap roots deep in any soil
makes home in gardens woods and pastures
nestling there in natures foil.
.
Throughout the year to early fall
from lemon yellow through to red
it bears its graceful bowl shaped flowers
integral there in natures bed.
.
And when the papery petals die
from pointed capsules turning brown
it casts its small black seeds wide
settling there in natures ground.
.
.
( I have a host of these gentle flowers in bloom at the moment including a quite rare bright red form - there is also a double form although I prefer the singles).

Roses are red
Some in other colors to
Roses are my favorite
Flower to give you

In the Spring they call to me with whispering beauty in a color I am unable to sing. Blue, red, green it all seems like a dream cast my eyes on yonder vast garden as a treat to my eternal delight.
