Bougainvillea

Bougainvillea on the arbor
Filled in solid with your color.
Fuchsia blossoms contrast green,
Spreading profusely outside my screen.

  3. Oh … I have a bougainvillea the same color and it is flourishing too. Gosh … isn’t it like a painting? It is the most beautiful bloom; so full of pretty petals. I will think of you each time I look at mine. ~~~~ : – )
    Oh … didn’t mean to neglect your poem. It is awesome.
    Hugs,
    Izzy xoxo

  4. We have a beautiful orange colored one in the front yard. The one in the backyard is larger and the deep pink. Now, I’ll think of you too, Izzy, when I look at mine–they’re all over Florida aren’t they. Glad you liked my little ditty.

    Hugs.. xoxo

  6. Beautiful picture and poem, Gayle. I had never seen these (or knew what they were called) until I went on a trip to Kona, HI. they were EVERYWHERE there and smelled sooooo good! 🙂

    • I would think they would be all over Hawaii as they are here in Florida–similar climate. I know they grow in India as well. Their colors are brilliant aren’t they–so glad you were able to experience them! 🙂

  7. So simple and brief, yet rich in filling the sense. You take words and make magic.:)
