Painted Lady (August 2017) — Image by kenne
Sneezeweed so yellow
on mountains so blue.
Two cups, beginning
a blossom so yellow.
Pouring forth nectar
each a revengeful burst.
A painted lady lighting,
wine tasting of Chardonnay,
winging under the influence.
Leaving each flower behind,
next comes Tinker Bell,
next for the old gray Eeyore.

over the meadow
moving wildflowers

that they exist in the present, which is what there is and all there is.

Sneezeweed (Helenium) Wildflowers — Image by kenne
I’m still learning to identify southern Arizona wildflowers and one that I always recognize by name is sneezeweed. But, despite its name, sneezeweed does not cause an allergic reaction. Actually, I prefer another one of its names, Helen’s Flower. In Greek mythology, Helenium emerge from the tears of Helen of Troy.
