Columbine,the flower


Columbine



Columbine has always been a favorite of early spring
its bouncing nodding flowers
bringing beauty to the garden
It lives peacefully alongside
sweet woodruff, irises
bluebells,trillium, solomon seal
and violets
I love the gang
that hangs out under the pines
my kind of
wildness
Makes this lustfull heart
for the new growing season

  2. Columbines are one of my favorite flowers. Mine are just barely poking out above the ground; it will be some weeks before they bloom.

  3. When I was little, my grandparents lived in a cabin in the Colo. Rockies that had columbines everywhere (the blue kind). Whenever I see them I think of rambling around hand in hand with Grandpa, enjoying the flowers together. Cheers for bringing back that memory today, Suz!
