Pink Flamingo

by april-dawn

Secret wish stands hidden in cliché riddled green patch this neon bird mocks red capped garden dwellers serenely seated bookish girl half-dead fern leans towards hot pink beacon salvation bent crescent moon casts feathery palm shadows with curved arms against the bamboo fence lifting earthbound desires skyward.

My desire for a  kitschy pink flamingo  was  strong in my garden we kept in Houston burbs so many years ago. I never got one for it .
