Da ew genam flourys. Leun ew ow lowarth a flourys, saw nag ens an re a via gwell genam cawas. Ma rosen rüdh, saw bloodh an bagas ew pemdhek hag ev a dal bos brâssa. Ow lowarth nag ew da ganjo. Ma ros gwel dhe 'gan kentrevoges - et hy he. Mon jei ow crambla emann en gwedhen.  Ma ros kei, breylu, e'n keow ewedh. Ew an rosen flour an moyha aswonys? Ma lies flour gen hanow "rosen", saw nag ens oll ros gwir. Ma dhe radn anodhans liwyow teg pecar'a ros. Ma gwedhrosen, rosen Sharon, rosen venedh ha bay-rosen. Ma baywedhen dhebm saw nag ew kehaval. (Ûsyes ew delkyow baywedhen avel erbys saw pub radn a'n bay-rosen ew gwenonek.)  Ha, heb mar, "ros an deveyth"  ew crystels po treth, nag ens flourys.










I like flowers. My garden is full of flowers, but they are not those I would prefer to have. I have a red rose, but the bush is fifteen years old and it should be bigger. It does not like my garden. Our neighbour has better roses - in her hedge. They are climbing up in a tree. There are dog-roses, wild roses, in the hedges too. Is the rose the most famous flower? There are many flowers with the name "rose", but they are not all true roses. Some of them have pretty colours like roses. There is the honeysuckle (tree-rose), hibiscus (rose of Sharon), peony (mountain rose) and oleander (bay rose). I have a bay tree but it is not the same. (Bay leaves are used as herbs but every part of the bay rose is poisonous.) And, of course, "desert roses" are crystals or sand, not flowers.

I'm a proper lazybones today. I found an old blog (August 2018) and decided to recycle it. I like reusing lots of things! I was brought up after the war, in a spirit of make do and mend. We didn't squander a single thing. I was satisfied with my verses in the first place, so why shouldn't I recycle them?
