“Simplicity is the
final achievement.
After one has played
a vast quantity of notes
and more notes,
it is simplicity
that emerges as
the crowning reward of art.”
~ Frédéric Chopin

Poem:
.
azaleas blooming, red, white and pink
at the Masters it is the signature drink
the tournament renowned as golf’s best
for the players it is the ultimate contest
for many it is physical prowess tested
Mark Twain called it a good walk wasted
for the spectators it is the ultimate garden
so pristine, Mother Nature will never need a pardon
azaleas announce spring from Florida to Pennsylvania
followed by the seedless families cryptogamia*
camera ready, a springtime beauty to behold
many precious memories more valued than gold
why does man hold on to his history
the ego is at the core of this mystery
who cares how many tournaments this man has won
let us find a way where everyone can have some fun

ME and the Boss

cryptogamia* in a former classification systems: one of two major plant divisions,
including all plants that do not bear seeds: ferns, mosses, algae, fungi.
