Summer Daze

 As I meander through my garden

I see the iris looking like the 

fleur de lys

 this iris hasn't totally bloomed and

needs some straigthening,

at least it's close for me to sniff.

 the white violets so intrigue me

as they do every year

 ajuga standing stalwart

 one lonely buttercup

don't tell Jim

he'll pull it out!

 pale pink Oriental poppy caught my attention

 the swath of forget-me-knots are all but gone now

 putting on an enormous show

 I lose myself in our Georgian blue veronica.

It's so very easy to do.

Dandelions just give me a zing and a kick.

but most of all

I enjoying sprawling in the grass

on a hot summer's day.

Inhale the sweet smell of fresh grass

and

slip off to dreamland

for a few Zzzzzzz's
