Never mind starting them indoors
mid-May is around the corner
I accept you.
They say you’ll bloom into sunset clouds
Molten orange reds
velvet dress dancing on flower skin
on p e t a l s
valley of valleys
hearty thoughts
My lashes fluttered closed
dew drops escaped
And I found myself there once more
floating on/
our hands clasped
as we watch the sky move into a deep indigo haze
blooms wrought in silence
booming rapid heartbeats
flushed cheeks
a deep ruby
two marigolds
dream in seeds
Mar-i-gold
