Yellow Buttons & Lavender Hues

Bright yellow buttons bleed petal by petal into lavender hues.

Spindly green stems to red clay giving life in varying shades of blue.

Storm winds now blow and lavender in glory bows for grace.

The sun returns and bright yellow buttons again skyward face.

I listen as they speak.

I watch them dance.

I close my eyes to this moment

And I feel her heart as her lips touch my cheek.

I smile and pick a flower of yellow buttons and lavender hues.
