as summer begins . to wane, tired sunflowers still . try to do their best
flowers suspended . between the sky and the ground . we see the basket
watching carefully . the rabbit, fully exposed . assesses the threat
what we tend to, grows . what we ignore also grows . just differently
the time in between . the start and destination . is where life happens
focused on its task . the bee cannot be bothered . with the world’s problems
the dandelion . found a good spot, but mostly . it was down to luck
one looks to the sun . the other can remember . the reason it can’t
a tiny flower . gets noticed for standing out . from its surroundings
every sunrise . brings the message that today . is what we make it
