Delectable Discoveries
Safari fluttered along a path to nowhere, cerulean blue ponds greeting a swallow of sojourn.
The fragrance of vivid violets and poignant plum trees tantalized her sagacity pursuing gray gravel.
Sweet William and pale yellow yarrow moonshine reinforce her craving to dive into this delectable discovery.
Resting on brown rock cress mud puddles, “Siberian”, the tiger swallowtail, indulges rosy-flowered sizzling swamp Milkweed.
Satiating strawberries and lemon mint mingle with white baby’s breath wrapping vigorous vines aloft.
Safari takes flight following the path to ecstasy. She spots Siberian, flutters past and lands on bundled black-eyed susan.
To her amazement, just beyond lies a countryside of purple asters, lavender and pink coreopsis nosing for a nibble.
Siberian wastes no time feeding on the red bee balm hidden by tall forest green and buttery beige grasses.
In the frenzy, the two take their fill of orange- golden marjoram, crimson clover, red snapdragon and maroon sedum, scarcely saluting the others prowling presence.
At the conclusion of the journey, Nature’s nectars find meaning in life. If only Safari and Siberian had?

QUOTE (Brahms @ Sep. 04 2003, 23:58)
Abundantly graceful, as mysterious as a bit of winged discovery trailside, as immediate as breathing familiarity, and appropriately foreign.
Fully appreciating, Brahms
