Linen, white


My arms full of pillowcases and sheets,
I am distracted
by the sight of the Magnolia,
crumpled and damp
with early morning dew.

Mine's not out yet. And I must change the bedlinen. Though I can't promise to do it as poetically.

I lust at a distance... at yours via the internet, and at next door's viewed from an upstairs window.

I so love magnolias. They remind me of home...Now back to the pillowcases... K x

I've spotted several magnolias in flower this past week... so beautiful.

A double haiku!

Distracted, crumpled and damp - that sounds just like me, most mornings!

The lovely Magnolia is one of my favourite flowers, I'm not sure if I can grow them here. Will have to check that out??
