Apple Blossom



Apple blossom bright against the blue sky.
The orchards are full of blossom.

 It is an exquisite sight. I lay on the grass in this orchard and delicate petals fluttered down around me. I think this may be what Paradise is like.

Sir John Falstaff



I never liked the way Prince Hal treated Falstaff.

Sir John loved him unconditionally, and Hal used him and then rejected him.


Hal is beige, all beige,
Falstaff a tattered rainbow
Washed away with tears.

parrot tulips squawking through the garden



disrupting pastel
tearing through green
untidy
exuberant
parrot tulips are well named

The Flying Dutchman





Wandering oceans
The Flying Dutchman
He is looking for love




I am pleased with the
chain stitched heart.
At last my embroidery is improving
