Sunshine

Close up photo of the flowers of a purple-podded pea plant, with the afternoon sun in the background.

Soaking up the sun,
veins reviving in the warmth,
young peas look alive.

Happy

Close up photo of a bunch of wood sorrel weeds with bright yellow flowers.

Joyously vibrant,
blanketing my garden bed,
common winter weed.

Winter

Close up photo of a red rose on the bush, with rain drops on it.

Rain drops on roses,
whispering breeze in my ears;
winter in full bloom.

Warmth

Close up photo of the leaves and flower of a citrus plant, taken from below the plant, overlooking the winter sun shining down from a cloudless sky.

A protective arm
wrapping around tiny limbs;
winter sun on plants.

Co-living

Close up photo of the bright yellow flowers of the mustard plant, taken on a sunny day.

The sun never scorns
at flowers that are yellow;
nature complements.
