heuchera – Leaf And Twig

Rise Up

keep reaching
for the light
illuminate what is right

despite the lows of cold
the moss and Sempervivum
the brave and hearty Heuchera
keep on and on

with scalloped edges
and complex patterns
of white on peach

separate plants
find kinship
in color

a merry band
of cheerfulness
still jumping mid-summer

at the tulip stop sign
the magic flowering carpet
waits for travelers to board

rain revealed
a still purple leaf
preserved by cold

every edge
announced itself
declaring place in space
