The Spin of Spring

by Helvi2

When Daylight Saving comes around

My head begins to spin

I haven't got a clue on earth

What time zone I am in?

The warming earth says I should sprout

Become a lovely flower

But timings got me so confused

Just by that single hour

My color queue went out the door

My petal count went too

What should I do to re-create

I haven't got a clue?

What happens if, what I once was

Becomes a strange display

A blueprint of what I once was

That's clearly gone astray

When everything goes into flux

Who knows just what you'll see
The change of just an hours time

Might twirl a spin on thee

The tick tock of more sunlight time

Disturbs the clock within

And footsteps struggle on a course
Of where they once had been

This image was inspired by MKFlood's Funny Flowers, an artist on FAR I've always loved the humor Mark creates when he does his comical characters. When I found a photograph I took of Gerbera blooms with two flowers that had top-notches growing out of the center, straight up, I thought I'd post it just as it was. ...( Gerberas have a knack of doing 2 strange things ... 1) Trying to create a twin from the same flower head ... 2) growing petals straight up from the center of the flower)....After I did my usual post work on it, the thought of turning it into a Funny Flower crossed my mind. I couldn't get Mark's Funny Flowers out of my head! LOL The image also inspired this poem. I so hope you enjoy what you see and read! Thank you so much for stopping by!
