Poems
Mar 2021
Moonflower
Night flower blossoming
Beneath the summer sky
Petal parasols unfurling
Throughout June and July
She was born under the moon
Nocturnal butterfly
Pollinated by pale moths
To live one day then die
Moonflower blooms in warmth
Her short seasonβs end nigh
Shriveling once the frost sets in
And conceding to the ice
Moonblossom rich in scent
A true pleasure to stand by
Her short-lived sweet fragrance
Would all surely vivify
This poem was written in 2020.
