Wildflowers

tenacious hold
rooted deep
wildflower blessings
in summer creep
to carpet in pink
in purple and yellow



fields and furrows
see soft red mallow
like a vision
in perimeter's view
when you look close
they fade on you



ofttimes a man of little means
know what it means
to look in eyes of blue
dapper now, a floral gift
he presents his love to you



tiniest flower of
yellow on sprig
purple lupine graces tall
careful not to bend the twig
of sage that feeds the
souls of all



green O green
might my valley be
but when the wildflowers
bend in wind
graced be the
eyes that see
