ISIS
Isis spreads winged arms
flowers gaze at ancient face
giving her their gold.
BEE ORCHIDS
Wild blue orchids call
“We are Lavender’s sisters”
Grateful bee visits.
ZOOLOGICAL GARDEN
Dogwood and catmint
at peace in the quiet garden
bee orchids humming.
No elephant grasses here
nor tiger lilies stalking.
SUMMERTIME BLUES
Blue sky, blue orchids,
blue leaves, blue lavender
blue deckchair, blue eyes
Blue shadows on sunny path,
all blue today but not us
PIGEON
Pigeon lands heavily -
misjudgement, twig too fragile -
pigeon flutters out
up to the sky, pretending
to answer urgent call – cooooo

Zoological Garden is a total gem, small but perfectly formed.
