GILLENA COX GARDEN PHOTOS 2021
The rains, the rains, oh dear the rains
Language of lushness speaks vociferously
So many appearances so much gains
Caladiums spread like elephant ears
Season of torrents, oh dear the rains
Green's a colour verdant and unremorseful
Weeds and cultivars jostle without pains
Caterpillars long gone to moth wing nights
And flowers open for butterfly gains
Happy is the garden in season so wet
Soil, drunk on heaven's tears, oh dear the rains

I so love your plants for I have them inside the house - potted all through winter.
ReplyDeleteRains are blessing but not too much. I wish our climate doesn't have the long winter season. I so love this part: Soil, drunk on heaven's tears, oh dear the rains

Dear Gillena, We need some of your rain .. desperately! Fires are raging thru our part of the US right now. So much smoke today, our eyes are stinging.
ReplyDeleteAs always, your poetry is lovely.

We have quite some rain here as well at the moment... just not that warm, tropical kind but rather the cold and ugly german rain - sigh - my tomatoes don't like it that much. I love those tropical plants... nicely penned

Lovely, contemplating the lush garden thriving in the rain.....we could use that rain here in BC where 300 wildfires are burning throughout the province. Lovely to read you, Gillena.

The tropics are so different from what we see up here... but I think we need some rain here too.

Enjoyed reading this Gillena, and the pictures were captivating. Rain is certainly a blessing to the earth, but it can get overblessed… 🙂
ReplyDeleteYes indeed. We can do without the excesses.
