A carnival ride,
Swirling magenta transforms--
Spun cotton candy.

i am thinking of the first time i laid eyes on the twirling fuchsia...i was so young i imagined they were ballerinas all.
ReplyDeletethanks for your sweet place here in my haiku heart!
They are so beautiful, and so are you. I love the cotton candy too. :)
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love the bright colours of the fuchsia's and your haiku!!!
ReplyDeleteWOW! What color, what beauty. Your words describe perfectly. Such a divine landscape to have. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeletePeace
i don't think i've ever seen this plant. and you've described it beautifully with your haiku... it really does look like a carnival ride in that first photo!
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful... I enjoyed each picture..
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was...can those flowers be real? Your haiku truly expresses the magnitude of their glory!
ReplyDeleteI stand amazed at the beauty of fushia flowers.
ReplyDeleteHaiku my heart....
Golly those fuchsias are divine! they look like twirling ballerinas!! Great haiku!
ReplyDeleteFuchsias always look like fancy hats to me. I just hung two pots last week -- the hummingbirds need a place to play.
ReplyDeleteI've always loved fuchsias but until now I never knew how to spell it.
ReplyDeletethis is fantastic....I used to call the blooms "little ballerinas" or "dancing dolls"
ReplyDeleteI love fuschias! they always reminded me of a carnival and your haiku captured that colorful wonder!
ReplyDeleteI remember the first time I saw fuschias! I was completely blown away - Haven't had any luck with them where I live now - Lovely flowers, lovely haiku, lovely you!
ReplyDeleteThe last image is wonderfully enticing, four dangling delicious cherries!

Margaret,
ReplyDeleteI adore these particular flowers. It seems that they absolutely know how to dress putting together the finest outfit for Spring. They sway in the breeze unbothered the wind. They are dancers all. Their brightly colored bulbs hold such a promise! Beautiful post!

Noelle

Beautiful flowers, reminds me of my childhood visits to grandma every summer in Guanajuato, Mexico; we use to cut the flowers and wear them as earings while strolling @ the plaza & the open street market! that was over 30 years ago!
