Bounty

Tulips spilled sensuous stamen Scattering intense purple Pigment across glass topped table.

Blown petals sunkissed yellow Shot through with spiced pink Flanked full and open cores.

Had Nature been in attendance To her full omnipotence fat Bumble bees would hover patiently collecting nectar for the Goddess. Backleg pouches overflowing as returning posses deliver up their tributes.

Alas our Sister slept too deep This May afternoon. No platoon In striped regalia came creeping To collect Her bounty. And so She also neglected to attend Our twentieth century fable.
