Rose Garden Haiku

sensuous beauty

blushing beneath the sun’s tongue

pink folds unfurling

 

white linens windblown

a dancer’s petals whirling

in joyous spirit

 

spring rain surrenders

 May’s roses lift fair faces

to sunlight’s warm breath

 

vintage tapestry

roses stitched on wine and jade

grandmother’s bouquet

 

harlequin tumblers

decked in frippery and frills

perform for the sun

 

fuzzy chubby bee

revel in your golden wreath

sated with summer

 

Thank you for visiting my garden. ❤

I hope you’re doing well.

    • Thanks, Bel. I was just telling my brother about your blog earlier today. Eerie! Lol. He wants to start a hiking/biking blog and I told him about yours. I’m doing well overall. It’s such an odd time. I hope you’re getting outside and enjoying nature and staying safe. Be well, my friend. ❤

        Oh that would be so cool! Let me know once he does and I will be sure to subscribe. I have a road bike too and I used to take it with me before I got into hiking – then I realized I should have gotten a mountain bike instead 😂 Just went on my first hike today after a long time – I have to burn all the calories I gained because of quarantine!
