Sharmaines Carnations
Copyright 2010 Russell Leslie Howells
Through the garden I follow
as she picks her own bouquet
arranging them in the vase
as we go from bush to bush
Their colours-subtle
except for the blood red
Their perfume
invading my senses
as we walk
She cuts slips as we go
planting them alongside others
already struck
ensuring continuity of supply
Once inside I place them
in the centre of the table
A joy-for us both to enjoy
Sharmaines Carnations
