A Belated Valentine
Your love is everywhere-
in the vibrant purple iris,
the tulip soon effulgent
in full bloom,
the multitude of happy dandelions
dotting the newly-greened spring
lawns like the eyes of Argos.
We are your flowers who
open into billions of brilliant colors,
bring up purpose from our roots
like rising sap,
remain for a brief sunset
then wither and return
to you, mother; you who tends
our tiny headstones...leaving a
pebble of remembrance each night.
