Slice of Life: Friends to Rejoice

Two poems— one from yesterday and one from today. Thanks to my friend Sarah, I now can enjoy this little wildflower since I have now correctly identified it.

Yesterday Disappointment

Five petaled pink 

Caught my eye today

“Oh look, I think

A gift in the driveway!

Let’s move it to a place, here

In the garden —let it seed!”

“No” said he in a sneer

“Not that obnoxious weed!”

Today Rejoice!

Five petaled pink 

A friend would name today

“Oh look, I think

Stork’s bill in your driveway!

Wildflower: critter food, here

It will spread — its spiral seed!”

“Yes” smiled I with a cheer

“I’m so glad it’s not a weed!”
