Tom, you really know how to appeal to the passionate gardner!

It does look like a magic carpet .... I would have never thought of that. :)

Such a pretty little jewel, this one is. .. but aren't they all??

Hi, Treischel,
This is an excellent short verse painting a picture in just a few syllables. Good flow and figurative language and imagery,
Preston

A good naani. I like your color scheme, like the leaf. Good descriptive words. Good alliteration with leafy elephant ears. Red veined ripples is another good description.

A well-penned Naani complementing the lovely photography;
A summer writing reminding one that autumn has arrived as we view colorful remnants of July splendor.
The stunning imagery would make a nice screensaver.

These plants do have a certain appeal and I can understand your interest.
You have captured the essence of this plants beauty and appeal well in this four line Nanni poem.
I really like the last two lines of imagery.

A very good Naani. don't think I've ever seen an elephant ear. I know they are big. Love the picture though. Sounds like a good description. Miss Sally

This is such a joyful piece I had to laugh when I read it because the leaf did look like a magic carpet and it did look like it was floating in thin air. Spot on. Thanks for bringing a smile.
