A Morning’s Glory shivering brave vines crawl to trellis black when wet grass bends beneath feet no summer sun slid to sky just yet today I paint my garden dirt brown to pink in tight fisted buds too tired of too much blue it is just a blush of truly missing red for too green I was born a naked wrinkled thing gasping for air feeling without permission having the capacity to bloom just some words cut out from the diary of my heart |

Helen The Morning Glory is one of my favorite garden flowers, because it is so tenacious! I have a feeling that you are too! |

Morning Glory's come out in the morning then disappear the rest of the day.. I need more of a reminder. love the pink being just a blush of red part...great line. "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |

This is a very pretty poem. Pink being my favourite colour of course. My mom would like this poem because she is an avid gardener. I could see her working in her backyard as I read your poem. Visually stunning. Sheri Adams Jesus lives in my heart! He can in yours too!!! |
