“Yellow Flower in Circles and Squares” — Image by kenne
Sometimes to appreciate beauty
it must be taken out of context
to capture a new perspective
based on my love of nature, sex
and life in a new consciousness
for the flower is neither
a subject nor an object
apart from being a flower.

Butterfly on Yellow Flower — Computer Art by kenne
No Names
I don’t know the flower or the butterfly’s name,
sometimes it’s not essential when the art
is created for posterity, not for a reference book.
On this late afternoon in early November,
as the slanting sun reflects off the patio
glass top table putting a stop to my work,
it was not that long ago that I would surrender
to the sun, retreating to the shade of the olive
tree before it became only a long shadow,
moving to the breeze, over the doves atop
the adobe wall as they gather the nerve
to fly down to the patio water fountain.
I thought of other autumn days whose shadows
are not limited to early morning and late afternoon,
deepening the blue of the north sky over the mountains.
Slowly the contrasting earth and sky colors
are giving way to dusk, an exalted dwindling light
going down, time rendered in magentas and mauves
as the bleeding canyon shadows now void of light
an illusion neither above nor below the canyon rifts —
night and day always together yet forever apart.

Work until I die.

Desert Marigold (December 5, 2014) — Image by kenne
I know this beautiful
yellow flower,
Marigold by name.
Not sure about
the butterfly,
so I Googled it.
Still not sure,
so I will
pass on it.

The Flower And The Bee
A beautiful yellow flower
Resting in the meadows
Amongst the other flowers.
A bright yellow daffodil
At the crest of the hill
Watching over the roses
Spellbindingly stole, the eyes
Of the buzzing bee.
He liked what he saw
In this little dainty flower,
Who took her beauty from the land
And was as radiant as the sun
Having its yellow colors too.
The happy little bee,
Flying drunkenly to her;
Started to ponder –
‘She is a beautiful flower,
Placed high upon the hill,
All the other bees see her,
Would she welcome me,
To taste of her nectar? ’
Then he continued to fly,
With other bees as passersby..
He landed on her petals
And he danced on her sepals
And he tasted of her nectar.

Hooker’s Evening Primrose — Image by kenne
A lady of the evening
beckoning in the twilight breeze
along the highway of curves
always tender to the stroke
opening enticing arms
not asking very much
just a one-night stand
changing color by daylight
kissed by the mountain dew.

“Yellow Cactus Flower” — Image by kenne
Flowers are not meant
to last forever,
so we cherish
the moments.
Most cactus flowers
last only a day
leaving behind
beautiful memories
for those fortunate
to gaze upon them
in the early
morning sun
while others
share the moment
painting
what they see.
Georgia O’Keeffe, Yellow Cactus Flower, 1929
