Mystical Thistles

Posted on Sep 3, 2015 by lavendermoongirl

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! 🙂

  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. 🙂
