Fragrant pink queen
A floral celebrity
Dramatic Star Gazer
Haiku

This little flower wasn’t in the garden of a queen,
Or even in a place where it might be seen,
Yet it was beautifully dressed,
Looking it’s best, as if blessed,
Bringing joy where it dwelt,
Sharing fragrance with any who smelt.
Oh that I, daily might try, to be
An affinity, in similarity.

1. My Point of View:
“Childhood memories
Of my grandpa’s garden patch
Full of strawberries
And the giant apple tree
That hid me as I ate them.”
2. My Sensible Sister’s Point of View:
“You should’ve asked Gramps
Before your hands reached for
His prize berries
Your temptation caused you
To eat and run to that tree.”
3. My Mom’s Point of View:
“Eating strawberries
From her grandpa’s garden patch
Childhood thief flees to
Apple Tree Sanctuary
Her secret place to hide”

Looking out my patio window just now I saw so many different birds visiting my yard eating the birdseed I had put out. Previous to today there had been only a flock of Chickadees and occasionally a robin but today many different kinds descended at once together! It seemed as if someone had created a flyer advertising a free lunch in my yard! That thought inspired today’s poem 🙂

Beguiled her towards the tree.
Yes, Beguiled her with trickery.
Charmed and Beguiled was she.
Serpent Deluded and Beguiled Eve
Towards tasting his tree,Beguiled!
