Along the Groomed Path

Hydrangeas bloom along the groomed path at sightly times, and roses, pert and dark, ring with wedding bells and shadowed veils. The black hole, in the ground, where she fell in — petals perpetually mixed with virgin soil. 6/15/2018

I agree with Carolyn on it being provocative. I am not sure if this is super dark and maybe she died?? Anyway, I really like it and am glad to see it with a great win. Congratulations.
