In October
The Flying Carpet
wanders gardens of autumn delight
taking solace from the chaos
Riotous begonias
before a morning of windowed frost
before a morning of windowed frost
A color poem of ivy
and Autumn Blaze Maple
One last heavenly morning glory
clinging to slanting shadows
clinging to slanting shadows
Brave fall crocuses
transitory
giving threads of saffron
transitory
giving threads of saffron
Intricacy of clematis
“Quincey” laden with fruit...
the apricot leaves making a golden
bed of sleep for winter
the apricot leaves making a golden
bed of sleep for winter
We bring the echeveria
and the plectranthus
inside to feast on lingering bloom
inside to feast on lingering bloom
and wish you an aspen glyph Halloween
Special thanks to Sialia, Sarah,
and Gail and Zack
for letting The Flying Carpet
ripple through your morning gardens
