Hour 21
9/3/2023
“…By Any Other Name…”
The petals wither,
fall and shiver – as each stem
begins to slumber.
Come tomorrow will awake
and dance with their life anew.
Each garden echoes
movement and song as birds preen,
and mates abound.
Their warbling throats fill the grounds.
The vibrant hues soon beguile.

Thanks for this lovely poem, Chris! I could see the garden come alive before my eyes.
