Daylight Saving Time _ Flower Dilemma
What Happened to Your Petals?

This image was inspired by MKFlood's Funny Flowers. I've always loved the humor Mark creates when he does these comical characters. When I found a photograph I took of Gerbera blooms with two flowers that had top-notches growing out of the center, straight up, I thought I'd post it just as it was. ...( Gerberas have a knack of doing 2 strange things ... 1) Trying to create a twin from the same flower head ... 2) growing petals straight up from the center of the flower)....After I did my usual post work on it, the thought of turning it into a Funny Flower crossed my mind. I couldn't get Mark's Funny Flowers out of my head! LOL I so hope you enjoy what you see! Thank you so much for stopping by!
Sending a BIG THANK YOU to Mark for the wonderful inspiration! :o) Helvi
......The image I created also inspired a poem to go with it, it's called ....."The Spin of Spring"_ A Flower's Dilemma.....
.....When Daylight Saving comes around.....
My head begins to spin.....
I haven't got a clue on earth.....
What time zone I am in?.....
The warming earth says I should sprout.....
Become a lovely flower .....
But timings got me so confused.....
Just by that single hour.....
My color queue went out the door.....
My petal count went too.....
What should I do to re-create.....
I haven't got a clue.....
What happens if, what I once was.....
Becomes a strange display.....
A blueprint of what I once was.....
That's clearly gone astray.....
When everything goes into flux.....
Who knows just what you'll see.....
The change of just a hours time.....
Might twirl a spin on thee.....
The tick tock of more sunlight time.....
Disturbs the clock within.....
And footsteps struggle on a course.....
Of where they once had been.....
