Wisdom
Smell the lilies bloom. /
Hear the wisdom of no words. /
See and touch and be.

Grasp
Grasp impermanence: /
lilies bloom and then are gone. /
Then the grasp leaves.

Lilies
The fireworks spent. /
The promises unfulfilled. /
The day lilies bloomed.

No return
It feels good, Beth said. /
She snapped off dead lily heads, /
dropped them to the ground. /
This evening, I did the same, /
but she did not return.

Deadheads
I deadhead lilies, /
snapping old petals so new /
flowers don’t suffer.
