Hibiscus Magic Options

[Orion]

My toes didn't care
if last night's leftover rains
drenched them on this early morning

walk to the middle
of that glorious hibiscus
whispering, wooingly, to the
camera-woman,

"Put your coffee cup down - now;
pick up your camera!"

The backyard trip was
well worth soaked sandals
and feet - and ankles -
traipsing in blades,
wispy, wet, swaying.

What was this calling about?
Moved me from my cozy kitchen
to see delicate beauty
through mesmerized lens-

little bee in bee heaven,
bee toes pollen-dipped in
piles of snow-white

{click}

If a bee could have
smiled, I know this
bee was grinning for
a quick shot.

Left a wondering me -
who was happier
the saturated photographer
or the pollinated bee?

Thank you for your word of explanation, Jan.
We agree whole heartedly - 1st, to each his own, and 2nd, variety is the spice. It would be boring if there wasn't the broad spectrum that we find to read and enjoy.

My comment was mostly to educate myself. There have been times when a writer will break between an article and its noun, and such times leave me puzzling for the reason. Most often it escapes me, and since I didn't see the logic here, I asked. Your reason is completely acceptable.

I personally enjoy pushing the boundaries. It seems in this genre, there is ample room to do that, but coming from the R & M sector, I'm finding the crossing not as easy as I thought it would be.

Best,

Merlin
