Enchanting bells (A Sonnet)
The blue bells stared
With blue eyes bright
Flashing pink pupil in eyes, it peeped
How these fairy flowers smiled
Laughed at passer by,nodding in wind
People move helter skelter up and down
Day in and out on the snaking road
Endless crowds, thinning at night
Blue bells, it grew either side in the wild
On its own, a purple blue carpet in green
A magical setting, lovely sight
Warming cockles of the heart
Those hearts it delicately touched and withered
Forever see Blue bells in their minds
Always,
Deborah
Our famous bluebonnets seem to require much assistance from interested land owners to enrich some Texas farmlands every spring. Many of those and other wildflowers are planted by airplanes spreading seeds instead of the old days when only birds had that task.
