Similkameen Stones

a cameo appearance...

this lone pink poppy

parades her fleeting beauty

biscuit comfort

on the edge of sleep

and in happy anticipation,

I whisper to myself.....

'tomorrow I will make buttermilk biscuits'!

A Small Stone from the Similkameen

Gypsy Peonies

ragged and disheveled

too long dancing

in the small hours

of the garden.....

shaking the tambourine

still wild and lovely!

(Queen Victoria's Birthday)

The flames of

the yellow iris

and the bright poppy

set the altar afire

this Pentecost.....

Friday

company at lunch....

family gossip,

laughter,

linger to brighten the rest of the day.

contentment.....

Small stones from the Similkameen

May 21st, 2015

A yellow butterfly

flirts shamelessly

with the marmalade iris
