14/30 Quaking Grass

Swaying in the breeze,

paper-thin lanterns rustle

and I sing for joy.

13/30 Ballan Wrasse

I, in reverence,

bewildered by your beauty,

return you to sea.

12/30 English Stonecrop

Sweet constellation

a starburst in miniature

on Cornwall’s high cliffs.

11/30 Fishing

When it rains it rains

and boy, did it rain today

but the fish don’t mind.

10/30 Lady Hosta

Easy on the eye

soft curves with pale rippled skin

and this year no snails!

9/30 Bindweed

A loving caress

in no time at all becomes

a smothering choke.

6/30 Yellow Flag

At the water’s edge

in small clumps of green and gold

waving at the sun.

Eye to eye

A swan and angler

exchanging lazy gazes;

close but not too close.

3/30 Speckled Wood

On the face of it,

plain; but take a closer look…

beautiful patterns.
