a bloom falls to earth;
lit up by the morning sun,
it glows… for a time.

a bloom falls to earth;
lit up by the morning sun,
it glows… for a time.

rain-laden blossom
falls… lands with a sound,
in the mud.

a single lily
stands out in a pond of pads:
bright to browned.

amidst bright colors
and fragrant aromas:
sense overload.

spider hibiscus
dangles over the pond;
like an ornate lure.
