Haiku my heart~ morning walk

 
 
 
 Xeriscape gardens
efficient irrigation
a desert lifestyle

I usually go on my walks in the morning
before the sun gets too high and hot.
The plant life here offers little shade.

  2. I have never seen these trees (are they palms?) before! They remind me of Cousin It from the Adam's Family, only a Mr. & Mrs. It! What a beautiful morning greeted you Gemma before the heat!

  4. What bushy tailed trees. They make me think of a cross between a palm and a yucca. They are really quite beautiful. I wonder if they have beem pruned, groomed, and shaped.

    1. I don't think so. They are sharp and sticky and grow like this.
