Eyebright – Euphrasia purpurea

Encroaching into other fields

Yields the other flowers do, they dare not resist

Energised in august fair and June juvenations

Bronze is the colour with parasital greens

Ripping through woven roots (trespassing)

Immaculately poised all the same

Granted high season as a long life

Heightened and verdant until the Autumn

Teeth of nature then to tear it down and take it away

Liam Michael Hunt

Bluebell

Born to love and never fade

Longing for a sunkissed touch

Unified in fields of blue

Especially for me and you

Barricades of winter fold

Existance pleasurable not of endurance

Love is the lip that flower fairies touch

Longing for the happy season

Liam Michael Hunt

Bluebell

Bursting into

Life, always

Under shrubs and trees

Everyday

Blossoming, like a blue gown

Elegant and beautiful

Lovely colours

Lazing in the sun

Edward Cowan

Foxglove

Fiery red hanging bells

Open to the sun

eXclaiming with loud profusion

Glad tidings of hope to come

Lustrous and appealing

Outstanding tall and proud

Vanity not withstanding

Extolled by virtue sound

Foxglove

Falling down in tiers

Often very tall

eXcept some are small

Good to look at

Large bell like flowers

Often the blooms are attractive to bees

Variation of yellow or rusty brown shades

Especially spectacular at the back of a border

Joy

EYEBRIGHT

Easing her tired limbs

Yonder in the meadow

Euphemia lies, eyes alight.

Blinks back bright tears,

Remembering sweet love

In Spring.

Gorgeous and guileful, he stole

Her heart; beautiful, wolfish

Thief.

Leisa Gray and Wendy Teall

Daffodils growing in the garden

Amazingly beautiful in colour

Interesting texture and form

Sunlight glorifies my petals and leaves

Yellow jewels in the garden
