A Memory of Garden Peonies

I saw a pretty garden today full of pink peonies. It brought back a sweet
memory of my mother's garden. I can still see us in her beautiful garden
trimming. Later, we would sit in the shade admiring our work . . . 

the softest of pink
heavy flowers that droop down-
butterflies flutter
