Peonies

Peonies
16.juni.2019

There were always ants among the peonies where I once lived. I always checked the buds, and petals. But even bugs are careful here by the river where swallows and robins seek them out. And what creeps and crawls had better know how to hide and survive the coming drought. Even the birds of Spring leave with their fledglings. Sitting here on the bench, I notice how Spring red and yellow greens slowly have turned to the darker green of Summer. Where I came from the peonies always welcomed Summer. I cup pink and red ones in my hand, bring them to my face and inhale their fragrance.
