Feel the Winds Blow

Soft petals protect a stamen
  -- pollinate, procreate --
they cheer the act on
  -- reproduce, recreate --

Feel the winds blow
  ~ soon they'll be gone

This has a cadence that I found fascinating; it seems like more than a rhyme.

So flowers are not dissimilar to dogging then. Smutty voyeuristic nosey parkers ;-) Sorry, couldn’t resist. Nice observation Gershon. Terry

I'd never thought of petals this way before. Nice little musing.

Such transient delights, flowers are. Of course, if they were 365/24, we would stop noticing them. Thanks, Heidi.
