When Flowers Bloom

Photo Haiku Series (Part Six--Mixed Bouquet)

fine ivory flowers

cling to stems in starry clumps

snowflakes in July

silky paper hearts

lipstick-pink, perfume-scented

love notes unfolding

golden flower-chain

rings her fiery pink crown,

fuschia skirt twirling

magenta petals

dipped in egg-shell white, dripping

paint flecks all around

in a nest of grass

yellow roses break open

like soft, downy chicks

delicate petals

light ruffled edges vibrate

with the hum of bees

Thank you for reading my flower haiku.
