I hear the purple as it floats by in the sunlight’s slow moving current
diving in eyes closed
the smell seeps in to all the pores of my skin

I was born in the land of Banjo Paterson, gum trees, and weather extremes.
I am a freelance photographer. I love to make images that make people happy. To capture forever a precious moment.
I am also a freelance writer/editor.
I live in the Bay of Plenty, New Zealand, but still like to claim my Australian heritage.
I graduated with a Bachelor of Communications in 2008.
I am writing my first novel.
I love to write poetry, short stories, and also write for the web.
And there is nothing that is on a par with a sunny summer's day spent at Waihi Beach.

So rich and sensual!
What is the plant please? the leaves look like an ivy pelargonium but the flowers, more like a lobelia or even a salvia.

So glad you like it – I can’t find out what it is. The plant was a gift years ago. Will have to take a sample to a nursery to find out – watch this space and I’ll let you know !!

Beautiful picture and words, Jo. I almost thought your plant was a salvia, too, but I think it is a Plectranthus, also called a Mona Lavender.
