Dallying
In my innocence,
I dallied at the border
between bloom and blight.

Have a glorious Sunday. Hope to have you as a visitor today when you find time.
Amazing that such beauty can be found in such a dry place…thank you for the lovely poems each week 🙂
Good place to be at ..doesn’t matter if you call it border…. well done..
So much is learned there!
Nice shot, it conveys your sentiments perfectly!
Desert plants are wonderful — they have to try so hard! Beautiful shadow shot.
Subtle and soft.
Lovely.

Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving that sweet poem. I love it!
I just love the “…between bloom and blight…”
Bloom and blight.
Love your verse!!
stupor
I could so relate – I loved the line – between bloom and blight – isn’t that so often the way life can be! Thank you 🙂
“dallied at the border”….excellent!
innocence of bloom & blight, is a good place to be.
Thanks so much for visiting my blog and commenting on my Shadow Shot, both today and last month!
All the best!
That is perfect for a little boy I know…
who is no longer dallies there.
He was transplanted further south.
as only flowers can.
The picture complements the words. Nicely said.
Yellow has always
been my favorite color.
Bright sunshine. Happy.
Very pretty flowers when the photo is enlarged.
I agree with Karen. I enlarged the photo and those flowers are indeed lovely!

MMT, I like your verse. 🙂 Perhaps because I like to dally. Between bloom and blight is much better than being between a rock and a hard place.
The flowers are pretty too, but look rather lonesome. I couldn’t figure out what kind they are.

Great shot.
Have a fabulous week.

perfect little poem for your sweet photo.
another interesting caption here.
I dally all the time…once work is done for the day that is about all I can do. Love your little yellow plant in its desert setting. Beautiful and so different from Virginia. Hope you have a great week…warm without any rain!
have time to visit my other entry. I’ll appreciate it. Thanks.
Lovely words and photo. It looks like a very dry place!
Beauty can be any where…
It is pretty yellow flower. Happy MYM!
Nature is amazing. Happy Macro Monday!
The resilience of a bloom. I love yellow 🙂
Wonderful shot.
I like your haiku! Very nicely done!
Nice and delicate.
Beautiful!
Here’s mine. See you around!
Lovely blooms in the desert. Funny but I usually think of cacti not little blooms such as these.
Lovely poem and photo as usual. Very sweet bloom.

Your posts always brighten my day !!
Loved that- perfect with the picture! Happy Spring!
dallying is such an exquisite word… as if a freedom which had no borders… thought provoking.. the desert can only magnify the color of blooms ….
Wow! A good one.
