Plant Persona

Magnolia Ann

with her fragrant perfume

permeating from purple pink

blooms

gives shade to the

Creeping Charlie

ground ivy

as he migrates his

medicinal mint under the

canopy of this fair Lady

All the while

Mr. Fat Albert Blue Spruce

is all up in needles

over Creeping Charlie’s proximity

and peeping Tom propensity

towards his sweetheart

Magnolia Ann

What’s a homeowner to do

to eradicate this backyard jealousy

stemming from this

Plant Persona variety?

Had fun writing this and was hoping it would be equally enjoyable to read; visualizing the setting throughout by copy of these photos. Unfortunately the power company cut down my Fat Albert Blue Spruces that were nestled in next to the Magnolia Ann several years ago, but the memories remain.
