In Their Midst




Ubiquitous dandelions!

ground cracked or sodden,

temperatures soaring or chilled


(not a winter chill!)

in parks and lawns,

back alleys and roadsides ~


beside this sidewalk

one magenta tulip buds 

valiantly in their midst.



“There are always flowers for those who want to see them.”

~ Henri Matisse

I love them when they have turned into those fairy like 'clocks' !

That’s the first time I’ve heard them called ‘clocks’. I know them as helicopters.😊
