And as I’m a lazy poet on Thursdays – and every other day, it’s two in one!
Fern
Shelter in its shade
ancient and mysterious
grand Dicksonia.
Micro Climate
Dark pinnated fronds
pride of Devon’s gardeners
make yourselves at home.
This is day four of the Daily Post’s challenge but there’s still time,

LOve this, Gilly. 🙂
You do these so well 🙂
Fab shot of the fern. The particular lighting makes them look almost black. Interesting.
Outstanding poetry as always, Gilly.
Fine job.
Beautifully descriptive … and … welcoming words.
Great photo of the fern.
A wonderful attempt Gilly. Love that fern..
