mostly fall is raucous color
but at a small enclave near the brook
shy leaves blush hues of pink
Fairies Autumn
The Hollyhock Reserved
the bloom demures from view
what trust and courage it must take
to reveal the source of your enigmatic state
A Blush Before Blooming
shy buds
gathering the confidence
to bloom
Open
blushing bud
opens to claim
full pure beauty
Black Capped
songbird on
the seed bell
dee dee dee
chickadee
