Lily

I found a wilted lily on her grave: once beautiful in life, so vibrant then and brought such joy... ...just like my darling Lily. written 11th March for Constance's Flower Imagism contest

The lily not only shares her name, but seems like a symbol of her demise. Very beautiful, Jack. Best wishes in Constance's fun contest. Hugs, Carolyn
