I grew up by the beach Air salt and sunscreen Houses squat on dunes Calendar in scratchy sand All yellows and brindle Winter scored in cactus ketch-groans Summer seagull soundtrack Snake sunbakes Kikuyu crunches Now home is hillside Rosemary jasmine breeze Every pane a picture Year parades in colour All purples and greens Spring exits in lily lavender Soft sepia summer Auburn autumn Jade July And in unison agave flower Invisible itinerary Monocarpic masts Noble nativity Curtains to overture In purples and greens

Purples and greens
I grew up by the beach Air salt and sunscreen Houses squat on dunes Calendar in scratchy sand All yellows and brindle Winter scored in cactus ketch-groans Summer seagull soundtrack Snake sunbakes Kikuyu crunches Now home is hillside Rosemary jasmine breeze Every pane a picture Year parades in colour All purples and greens Spring exits in lily lavender Soft sepia summer Auburn autumn Jade July And in unison agave flower Invisible itinerary Monocarpic masts Noble nativity Curtains to overture In purples and greens
Agave are monocarpic - reproducing with a spectacular flower mast, which happens once before the plant dies. ©2024
