Delphinium
Proud Delphinium
Tall, bold, purple blooms, reaching
Over-confident
Human touch to the rescue
Yarn and a stake do the trick
Time For Rest
Heavy, tired head
Delphinium in full bloom
Fall, now time for rest
I can't blossom anymore
Time for quiet reflection
NOTE: I wrote these during a time of deep and exhausting transformation. The Delphinium is my favorite flower, and I guess I came to relate to its majestic strength AND delicate nature. Those of you who are gardeners know that if you don't stake your Delphiniums, one thunderstorm can bring them down.
NOTE: I am so grateful to the man who will always be my soulmate. I surrendered to his playful demand that I write poetry with him. I'm positive it was the first step in unleashing my new creative urge.
I really enjoy the first poem. Very powerful ending that made me think of what could be the stake and yarn in my life. Maybe I need more?
