It is an interesting Hibiscus because of the variegated foliage and a close look.shows variegated blossoms. It was a most welcome gift..Today it had a real show of blooms. I am already plotting what to do with it this winter.LOL

How are your trampled plants recovering?

Slowly, very slowly, I think I should give them a jolt of fertilizer for good measure. I have two large Bearded Iris blooming that managed to stay away from the trampling feet.

Did not lose everything. ;0)

Welcome to The Dragonflies’ Lair, we are a poetry thread, but on Fridays we get silly and play music.Glad you are enjoying it.

Lately, we have more silliness than poetry, which is okay, too.

I enjoy silliness~~~and I just love music! And I certainly have nothing against good poetry. Only wish I could write it!

May get to listen to more music a bit later!

You all have a nice thread!

Thank You, we have been here a long time. Poets come and go as wandering pilgrims will.

We love them all. ;0)

The Misty song was sung by Sarah Vaughan, the mp3 is mislabeled.

I can’t remember when
it was all said and done
I thought it was a tune
some Loon had sung,

but then the birds
are carefree as an
afternoon on the reef
gentle breezes lifting,

my hair into the warm air
as an albatross soars overhead
riding the big wind
with so much ease

which teases my gauze clothing
the ruffles on my sleeves move
a little gust of warm air
lifts the hem of my garment

and I am bare to the albatross
and the sun, sand, and waves
kissing the beach, remembering
the song of the Loon

or when it was all said and done.

Whenever I awoke to the song of the loon I awoke laughing.

Click the bird to hear what it was like waking up to them:

Good morning there sleepyheads. Wake up and get some dark and rich Columbian coffee. While you are at it, grab a nice caramel coated stickybun.
