Shadowed Wildflower

Wildflower 'neath a giant weeping willow, comforted by the shade her fragrance wafting darkly whispered into the wind ~ she'd been 'betrayed by the sun', frail tendrils blistered of indiscretion below burning discrimination, fallen neath the cracks suffocating a delicate essence, she could no longer bear the deep-rooted superficiality of seeds buried within dirty little implanted secrets

This is quite an interesting poem...and is it possible this one ties in with "A Tree Lovely as Poetry"? Is that tree so lovely a lofty weeping willow? :^) Either way, a very nice write here. MC

Perhaps, that's my secret. ;) Thanks so much MC for your attentive critique. Nice to meet you...

Nice, this one whispers in dark tones and lonely echoes. Mesmerizing to say the least.
