May Day 31

sweet verbena

though
they burst
in clusters
each verbena
blossom is perfection in miniature

May Day 30

fair
lily
kiss of fire
flashing crimson
in solitary reverie she blooms

May Day 29

if
ever
I forget
why I am here
the earth reminds me whispering… “just be”

Memorial Day

some
gave all
for country
remember them
remember freedom is worth fighting for

May Day 26

life goes on…

then
having
given all,
faded, wilting,
she clings to petals, pod swollen with seed
