Short lived Chamomile.

in #photography7 years ago

..
There was a wildflower in grasses
That didn't amuse the masses
The one chicken came
Said it was lame
And ate it dipped in molasses.

That lame flower would be Moroccan Chamomile that blooms so beautifully right now! Right between the grasses and cork trees. From a distance it looks like white and green carpet! From up close you see thousands or tiny daisies with bees, hoverflies, grasshoppers, butteries and other nasty flying things around.
Pity the chicken didn't eat them instead...

Excellent Post! Upvoted and rebloged

Thank you :)

I had Chamomile tea this morning ... Wonderful coincidence!

Woww yea. Now every time you drink that tea you will think of the poem. I dare you :D

I certainly drink chamomile tea more often than eat chicken, though the chicken in the poem ought to have been eaten, too!

Not to spoil anything, but I think he eventually was ;)

...and the Chamomile survivors rejoiced with a sense of vengeance !!! ;-)

... grow in power and take over the world with all their Chamomileness :p

...or at least, provide the world with a relaxing cup of tea! ;-)

And then we would have world peace :)

Mmm dipped in molasses 💮
Awesome photos of these tiny beauties @ewkaw!
Awaiting to see them here in a month or so :-)

Yeaaa That's what they chickens said too :P

Congratz, your post has been resteemed and, who knows, will maybe appear in the next edition of the #dailyspotlights (Click on my face if you want to know more about me...)

This is funny. I can see why certain someone looked at you "silly"

That's me :)
