#Fowc #Cluster
Coming to life from beneath the ground
leaves hiding a burst of colour
until its time for the flowers to
say “Hello!” to the bright morning sky. keeping
together for their own protection
each individual flower adding their own bit of
radiant colour to the garden
#fowc #brilliant
bursting colour out into the night sky
revellers watching the sight as the bells chime
it’s almost time for old father time to switch with his younger brother
launching a whole new year
light show of exploding sparkle
it’s like someone’s brightened up the darkness
and people are partying under it as the new year arrives
note the whooshing of the rockets and
the sound of the crowd as they travel towards the moon

Poisonous Plants – Image by KL Caley
Positioned where they are in the garden,
perhaps its best leaving them where they are…
pretty colours often a sign to the
present wildlife – to stay away,
of course – the pesky bees and wasps are welcome
pollen needs to be spread – so they grow again next time
precaution needs to be made of course
pretty colours often contain some kind of deterrent
pepper red – a message to canine, feline and human alike
please! don’t eat me….
#cyw #atomic #tangerine #fruit
A sensation
Thats what i guess you would call it
Out of the fruit
Many segments of zingy fruit
In a haphazard
Circular formation
Tangy on the tongue
as you bite on the segments
navigating your way to the juice
great explosions as the segments
empty their flavoured cargo
round the mouth
its like an orange – but some say they’re
nicer than that, and easier to peel
expect smiles around the fruit bowl when the kids get home
#CYW #Aquamarine
They say its the true colour of water
but by the time you’ve had your cordial added
the fruit has fizzled it away
It sets of a summer holiday perfectly
as the sun reflects its blue
and you wan’t to dip your toes
on perfect days, the sky mirrors the sea
and its like the sea begins where the sky ends
wonderful to look at from a deckchair
of course, the jeweller likes this colour
its the birthstone thats usually surrounded by diamonds
so its no wonder he likes it
or the colour of the eyes of the young lady
whos entered his shop
to purchase a ring with this precious stone
#CYW #Apricot
A fruit smaller than its cousin, the peach
people say its not as hairy, but tasty nevertheless
reactions – some say its just right – others say wheres the rest of it ?
its nice on its own, or in a yoghurt or even with cereal
craziest thing of all – you can get them in a packet – dried
of course, you don’t have to eat them dried
then again why would you want to?
#CYW #Yellow-green
A pair of most confused fruit
hung from the citrus tree
the gardeners couldn’t decide
if they were lemons or limes
you see as they were growing
it was clear as can be
two little green limes – hanging off the tree
but soon there was change and sunshine appeared
as the limes turned to lemons – it seemed a bit weird
the chef in the kitchen came out to the tree
and the fruit that was hanging there to have a look – see
he took them to the kitchen and there took a taste
then put them in a pie so they wouldn’t go to waste
and the staff in the garden all had a try
of the in-between lemon (or was it lime?) pie

Inspiration combined with a bit of
Design and a splash of
Exciting colour – produces something
Appreciated by everyone who uses it
#MLMM #Photochallenge
Feet firmly placed on
Fresh Formulated Marble Floor
Filling the next stage of the
Fabulous makeover of the house
For inspiration – trinkets and memories recorded,
Four walls waiting for ideas to be transposed
#CYW #Sunglow
Some say its the colour of the sun,
under the summer sunshade as it
nips down toward the horizon – heading to a
great mass of sand on the other side of the earth –
longing to see it again – the sunworshippers
often seen watching dipping down past the waterline
where it gives a few last rays of light before the moon arrives
