"I brought you these.
Anemones. From the garden.
Better last year"
blanched
blank faced
gone with the wind
my sentences tap out
coded conversation
- then a flicker
of recognition
"Japanese"
"Comes up like thunder Outer china.."*
Kipling and plants woman buried deep and accurate
*Japanese anemones originally from China. text quote from “Mandalay” by Kipling
On this 6th anniversary at dVerse am squeezing in 44 words for the Monday quadrille “Flicker“
