Oxtails and Cowslips

Oxtails and Cowslips

Sway

Foxgloves and Dandelions

Pray

Peacock plants

With Lambs ears

Are cocked to listen out for

Frog Orchids

Pulling

Fuzzy monkey-faces

At a Rattlesnake fern

As Birdseye Speedwells

Divebomb the Jade Tiger

Hiding in the Elephant Grass

Queen Anne dances

In Lace

As a Bird of Paradise

Parades for the

Parrot Orchid

Atop the Dog Rose

As if he is

The Cat’s Whiskers

Whilst hidden

In shadow,

Boxing clever

The Kangaroo Paws

At the Catkins

On the Pussy Willow.
