where the wild flowers grow

Sipping on jasmine tea,
I worship the leaves.
Dive into the earth,
a white moth means death
and I am
deathly afraid
of fluttering things.

Should I shatter, you
could blame the old
wives tales.
Mixing magic potion
part twilight and
part bent dawn
sierra grass.

Fresh, home grown
sticky-sweet tobacco.
Bonfire smoke, white
heat

passion flower.

you have such a mix of feelings here, almost like you were painting porcelain, an interesting style, captivating.

I often dab on a drop or two of pure jasmine essential oil--not only do I smell nice--I feel nice! lol

And homeopathically, Passion Flower is my botanical!

Enjoyed your poem--and your unique way of expression.

Enjoy your day!
Warm hugs and a smile,
Linda

You're a good fluttering thing, poetess..

Not an evil moth! Though, I'd never kill one, I can't even pick flowers without feeling bad..
I just remember a book by King, "Insomnia"..he could see the aura of flowers he'd picked turning black because they were dying..

Just like I thank my food before I eat it..
