Flower Walking in the Maytime








 Outside Fairyland


It's gray and chilly on the Bay today
like the blossoms themselves
Sunday's meditations stored up some sunshine





 A child's garden



 Everyday wonders to behold






 Bowling Green


 The old men have been
 lawn-bowling here
for a long long time





 It shows in the whorls
and lines of their faces



 The inevitable toll
of time and the weather


 It shows in lines
of grim determination



May
Skill and perhaps wisdom accrue
no matter what you do




 Azalea Bonzai
show



 Characterized by blossoms
of different color
on the same stunted tree



 Striking white lobe
of fleshy blossoms



This one as ordered
and ceremonial
as a wedding cake




 Approximate colors
are all I can capture
under florescent lights


This one's hues
come close to actuality


 Still beautiful
if only a portion


 They had tea and Japanese crackers
Providing a nice buzz for this busy bee
to continue on his way






 Garden 
Color Quest





Electric magenta



 Red and blue,
A guy slowly twirling
S-shaped blades 
under dramatic clouds
as his girlfriend filmed him




 Green myriad



 Purple blossom



Yellow sunburst
to say good-bye
