Amaryllis (two)

“Where, here and there, on sandy beaches
A milky-bell’d amaryllis blew”
Tennyson

Amaryllis

But this gorgeous flower
Has all the power
To entertain me, for hours

Snow Days (three)

“The biggest emotion in creation is the bridge to optimism”
Brian May

Snow Days 

3-a

Winter?
So what!
I don’t care!
I am feeling
Quite optimistic
Riding my bike
Sitting on a bench
So what if it snows
It’s almost June!

“The best seat in the house”

Snow Days 

2-a

It may be cold outside
With lots of frosted snow
But as the sun comes from its hide
You need to take it slow
Take a seat for a while
Even if it’s not your style
And simply enjoy with a smile

“If you’re not bringing anything to the table,
give up your seat”

Snow Days 

1-a

Looking for my favourite spot
The one I prefer for break times
Buried under snow it seems
Workings of a wintry plot!

Snow aside,
I really don’t mind
Sitting down for a few
Enjoying the silent view
Before the evening
Sun sets

It’s me

Because

Retorted the flowers in the stack
Or am I just getting a flashback?
