Communing with Flowers

Summer:  Maine

The flowers have erupted

all the more appreciated

after the browns and grays of winter

the colors so rich and pure

the petals intricate and lush

or

pure and simple

Nothing we create is as perfect

but

we

keep 

attempting

. . .

in 

story

or

art

but

what a high bar

nature

sets

and

I'll bow

to that
