…clinging to their color, not desperate, but resigned
to failure in the face of frosts first mild, then insistent,
then murderous in Nature’s way, the way it should be, the way it must be.
Their seeds slipping from the faltering grip of their purple womb
and drifting off to dream a frozen dream
of Spring.

Sublime, simply sublime.
I love this.
Thanks, woman. You caught me in The Process; particularly with things poetic, I need to get the words down, then do some very visual editing. Hope you like it as well in its finished form!
Beauteous. Magnificent. You have a gift for capturing these up-close pix.
wonderful, simply wonderful.
