Oh! the places we go
for a view, for a bite,
to see something new,
some special delight.

We’ll shop for a widget,
or bag of birdseed,
sometimes a beer,
and a burger we need.

Sometimes a movie,
or maybe a drive,
a stroll through a garden
glorious! alive!

In springtime flowers
need consideration,
colors and scents,
Mother Nature’s perfection.

We searched at the market,
we looked at Lowe’s,
the most unusual we spied,
was “nested” at Crow’s.

A surprise we found
in a big brown pot,
a cat was inside
very grumpy, we thought.

He would not be moved
nor enticed away,
he liked his pot
on that warm spring day.

Among flowers we bought,
were red geraniums tall
to plant in my pots,
no kitties at all!

Bright blue plant is dwarf, mounding morning glory, ‘Blue My Mind.’

Lemon Drop’ primrose. Heat and drought tolerant and OK in poor soil. A winner!

Duranta sapphire.

Can’t see me now…

…not now either.

Magenta impatiens and purple, red-topped primula viali

I wanted a purple petunia with white ‘paint spatter’ spots, but couldn’t see if for looking.

Five exuberant million bells and matching portulaca.

Geraniums await their pots.

Duranta sapphire blossom.

Saved cookie tins put to good use.

Some geraniums for my pots.

Grumpy ol’ cat, no hat where he sat.
