Flowers






She stumbled upon them in deep grass
two flowers blooming
Bright petals hidden
in plain view
Her never knowing how they grew
What seeds were planted
and when
Unbeknownst to her
yet
blending in

Lost Son




She searched for him
in many gardens over time
among weeds and brambles
in overgrown spaces

Through years of not remembering
the first flush of pain
from his arriving
his thriving
our
surviving
