    A Bed

    All tucked in

    Hay as a top sheet

    Inches of white

    Snow as a comforter

    Bulbs, roots, and rhizomes

    Nap and dream until

    Spring wakens them

    I always want to put my flowers to bed before winter...it sounds so conscientious, but somehow, it never happens. lol I like you easy, calm style.

    short and sweet i like it tells a lot, you have a good talent with short poems

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
