Golden tea steaming
In a daisy-strewn cup
Golden sunlight spilling
Like syrup across the garden
Goldenrod waving in the field behind
Goldenrod?
oh no
a-a-c-h-o-o!!!

Lovely Sunday,
Back to 90 degrees tomorrow!
Jingle: I'm loving the image of you smiling like a crocodile. Thanks for coming.
ReplyDeleteSam: Thank you! I appreciate that.
Nessa Brian & MM: Sadly, this was totally true, with not a word of fiction to it. The pile of tissues beside my chair is testimony. I went out in the yard and took the photo this morning, and when I returned my eyes were tearing so much I could hardly see. Allergies! Arrgghh!
P.S Brian: You were #5. Sleep in this morning? ;-)
Charlene: Thank you. I hope you get a nice cooling visit from autumn soon.
As soon as I saw the word "goldenrod" I knew what was coming.
ReplyDeleteI know the aaachoo attacks all too well. Unfortunately.
ReplyDeleteThankfully I am not allergic, your poem was delightful, was able to enjoy every bit of reminisce in my mind without sneezing once.
ReplyDeleteLovely 160 as always,,,divine writing.
cheers,
Joanny
