My walk was interrupted by my genius-gardener neighbor who came out to give dahlias. Aren't they all--gardener and flowers--lovely?!
You see me
walking by
oblivious
to my surroundings
and paying
attention
only to what
sounds leak
from
my hand-held iPhone.
You ground
me
back to earth
through lovely
dahlias
generous in scale,
color, and
variety.
In seeing them
I see
you,
humanity at its
best, and
our
shared world. Flowers
become more
lovely
for revelations beyond
their expected
beauty.
