Each bloom is perfect,
Tiny rays reaching from a golden centre.
A bouquet on a stem named goldenrod,
The late summer wildflower which brightens our day.
Despite the weather, the yellow glory remains,
Dispelling the foggy gloom.
It lifts the spirits of those who pass
Through the gallery.
The sunny blooms shine their best
Along the woodland paths or shoreline.
Bees come to visit, sweet nectar will become honey
And pollen spreads from bloom to bloom.
Goldenrod will shine again next year.

They are gorgeous!!
Goldenrod means August! I was surrounded by it as a kid on the prairies. A beautiful bloom indeed.
Hello,
I love the pops of yellow, pretty sunny blooms. It is great to keep the bees happy. Lovely views and images. Take care, enjoy your day!
Yellow is such a happy color - love the goldenrod!
So beautiful to see, thank you.
Simply glorious. A real mood lifter.
So pretty! And with my allergy medicine, quite innocuous. :-)
Heart warming beauty and as you say, its golden rays bring bring much needed sunshine to a gloomy day.
Goldenrod gets a bad rap because it often grows near the real culprit, ragweed. It's beautiful.
This post made me realize how bad I need to get out! I saw a bunch of goldenrod, but was moving along about 65 MPH and no time to stop. That is the story of my life these days.
Those bright flowerheads sure do brighten the landscape.
It's out here too and a great lunch counter for the bees.
Someone sings the praises of goldenrod.
Goldenrods certainly brighten up the fall season although they have competition from the leaves.
It feels good to look at nature pictures again. I've been avoiding it all for awhile. And foggy days can be pretty great too. I love walking around in the fog. It makes everything feel so mysterious.
That's brightened my day too. It's very grey here today after a fine day yesterday.
Yesterday i watched hummingbirds, Monarchs, and Compton's Tortoiseshells feeding on Goldenrod.
Nature's flowers are always perfect and lovely!
Love Goldenrod!!!!!

You really can't beat yellow, it is more cheery and uplifting than any other colour, lovely images here Marie 🌻
Cut my goldenrod back this year and hoping it will not be so floppy.
Beautiful!
I am half nuts...I meant to tell you I really loved these photos.
So Relaxing And Beautiful - Thank You
Cheers
What a cheerful yellow - I can see where it gets its name from! Must be lovely seeing it growing wild like that.
