The Irises are In Bloom

After church, today, Bob and I went to the Presby Memorial Iris Garden, Upper Mountain Avenue in Montclair, NJ. We walked along the iris rainbows and enjoyed the beautiful displays. We also sat a while on the lawn to listen to a jazz concert. The irises will continue in bloom for the next few weeks.

THE IRIS GARDEN

I delightedly strolled
along an iris rainbow
one effulgent Sunday in May
while would-be VanGoghs
painted under sunbrellas.

God could’ve made irises gray,
but He’s as lavish with color
as He is with love.
