Paths Of Colour

A Villanelle Celebrating The Amazing Flora That I Encounter On My Walks

Dandelion

On my walks, I am often stunned by the colours of the flora that I see. Many of these plants are considered weeds, but they bring an impressive beauty to the places I see them.

Foxglove

I am no Wordsworth and this is no "I Wandered Lonely As A Cloud" but I thought a villanelle may be a way to capture this.

    I love seeing purples and yellows in gardens and on wanders. Such beauty. Minor typo, fyi - "The Call Them Weeds". Cheers!
