The rich, full, round rhododendron
bloom hidden, nestled
snug behind the yew, full green
deep forest, radiant chartreuse
where the growing edges are
the pink-purple bloom
hidden below the porch
found only by the bumblebees
drawn by its nectar, by its calling
May 26, 2009,
seen and named by Ruth, May 25, 2009,
knowing it would soon be a poem
