The Gay Gardener - a poem by OTL - with photos!

The Gay Gardener

Winter Sunrise - Gardens at Waters East

Just the mention of “gay”

Brings up so many different definitions.

From:

          “happy”,

          to celebrating,

          to an orientation being embraced,

So many uses of that word

So many feelings invoked.

There are many,

          though some will not admit it publicly,

That find beauty in the naked form.

When viewed in colored photos

          some even are heard say out loud – “FABULOUS”.

But even if in Black and White – the lines of those forms are

          eye-catching indeed.

Admit it,

          you like seeing such – be honest.

That is that something we all like to see.

Naked

Clothed only in one’s beauty.

Nice!

It is ture – I cannot lie

I often have been found day in and day out

          spending time with some male beauties.

On hot Summer days and moon lit nights

          I get hot

          I even get sweaty

          on my knees

          what delight.

Something special

Frolic

Gaiety

          in bright sunny skies

               exposed for all to see

               with these guys

               one at a time

               or in groups

               I really don’t mind.

Work - sure

Pleasure - - - for sure!

Here are some of the male friends

          that bring my “gaiety” to life.

No doubt,

You too

          have had like friends I’m sure – for sure.

Admit it.

Don’t be shy.

Be proud when you’re “out”

          in the garden like me

          with friends like these.

Sweet William – how colorful indeed.

Bachelor Button – what a life.

Basil – love to eat that one

          Don’t you?

Cosmos – seems so sophisticated even the name.

Peacock Orchid – what more do I say?

Jacob’s Ladder – not bad in the shade.

Joe Pye Weed – butterflies love him,

          they can’t be all wrong

          they love to indulge.

And last but not least:

Cockscomb – - - FABULOUS.

They all live in my garden,

Maybe yours too.

Now face it.

Be honest.

You like these guys

          As much as I.

Does that make you “Happy and Gay”?
