Softened
beauty quietly strung
waiting
for eyes who notice
when the sun brushes
her petals illuminating
within for only a moment
as the autumn afternoon light fades
quickly
towards the night
Flowers on Friday: Softened Beauty
The Shady Tree 
Simply gorgeous! 🙂
Thank you, Joanne. I found this sweet flower in my new front yard 🙂 It measures about an inch across. Dainty but lovely!
What a great find – so VERY lovely! 🙂
Truly beautiful Carrie – words and lovely flower 😃
Thanks so much, Robyn! My first flower photo from my front yard 🙂 I was really happy to find this sweet treasure in my new yard.
Ah, at last a new poem and photograph, perfectly matched as always, and worth waiting for.
I wrote all week! Now I am sitting here fretting a bit because I don’t know that I can do it again…but I want to, so I will continue to try. And, I just learned of a poetry challenge that looks incredible. It is 20 days…yes I almost fainted too when I saw that (want to do it with me?? Please.). So, I am sitting with it today before I join in to know if I really want to.
Thank you Janet, for coming back to see if I have written/posted, and reading and enjoying what was here. As always, that means so much.
