Frailty

Precious Life is a Flower Unfolding to the Sun; Cast a shadow 'cross its petal, Poof! Its bloom is gone.

This is a gem. A fave. An xomo.

Sweet thought. I do remember thinking much the same of Stephen Crane.

interesting that you went back to dig out this one, my friend. And a fave, no less. You know, this kind of verse comes from my inner Emily Dickinson. If I could go back in time, she is the only human I would like to meet. Best always, Gershon
