It is most likely the heat, but then,,,

Wandering the path of wilted flowers,

For lack of loves persuasive spirit,

Weeds they called them then, and now,

Everlastings they prefer, of live bereft,

Colourful replicas, arranged, in Chinese vases,

Those wither not in death,

No butterfly will land, nor does a beetle break a leave in theft,

Plastic as is the deer that jumps, the eagle flies,

Across the paintings on the walls,

Beneath St. Francis, long forgotten prayer,

this has a profound impact on me, Jasmin, it moves me back and forth and through its images and their suggestions. One of your best, truly. john

Nice juxtaposition, Jasmine. It resonates...."A monument of plastic lies," and carries forth to politics and employment......paintings on the wall. Good write ~~ Diana
