They are saying that summer is over?
But how can that be?!
There’s still flowers,
And sunshine,
And places to see!
I never made it to the pool.
I never made it to the beach.
Though the margaritas in the moonlight that night were nice.
I never see it coming.
The cold nights are always a surprise.
How can they already have pumpkin spice?!?!
But the biggest tragedy?
I grew all these flowers,
And I didn’t pick any…..
For me 💜
So I finally stopped for a moment.
I didn’t pick the dahlias, the chrysanthemums, or eucalyptus,
I picked the less trendy, the forgotten, the weeds💐
And they are so beautiful,
I’d forgotten the joy that simple flowers can bring.
The bees still all over them agree 🐝
