Mystical Thistles
Twist their silver
Bristles.
Sycamore keys
Kiss in seed
Filled mists.
Fairies in gilded rickshaws
Ride at a lick on
Chamomile lawns:
Admired by
Nymphs
Tooting silver
Horns.
Victorian town Parks such as this one near the stunning Embankment in Bedford, offer beautiful borders along pathways to explore, abundant with nature, away from the hustle and bustle of the town. I enjoyed a lazy summer afternoon here with a friend after a leisurely lunch. I expect these thistles will appear in my design work soon! 🙂

Love your “… seed-filled mists… ” 🙂
Thanks Anni. 🙂
Welcome. Ann
I’m carried away by your poem and image! Lovely scenes of the embankment too!
Thank you Cybele. The Embankment is always picturesque, with a continental feel. I love watching the rowing boats going past. Next year Bedford has a River festival, which apparently is spectacular.
I hope you have a lovely day. 🙂
