arriving in June
Lucid Gypsy 
A lovely photo, and a lovely verbal tribute to two attributes of the … foxglove is it?
That’s right, digitalis 🙂
Lovely
I have no idea what this flower is, but I’m in love. Throat, the perfect word. How delightful! The speckles inside are such a surprise.
An endearing Haiku, Gilly. Your choice of words are always inspirational ❤ ❤ ❤
It’s a foxglove Tess, google digitalis, it’s chemical used for treating heart problems!
I’ve heard the common name but had no idea what it looked like. Thanks, Gilly.
Shoot. I’ve heart of Digitalis as well used for Heart problems. I didn’t put the two together till I looked it up. 🙂 🙂
Your photo sent me to do some research. 😉 Now I know about foxgloves. 🙂
Lovely! I so appreciate the wordplay…”a cure in its heart!”
Thank you 😉
beautiful words and photo – the pink is so vibrant.
Beautiful flower and haiku, Gilly. I didn’t know about the foxgloves medicinal properties.
Blogging teaches us so much 🙂
You’re so right. If we could just remember it all, we’d all be professors. 😆
A love haiku, Gilly. I love that: “a soft speckled throat.” It brings to mind a shy beautiful girl. 🙂
What a lovely haiku and now I learned about foxglove!
Loving the PINK against the grayed background on this capture. Nice Gilly!
