Life’s Garden

Bunny hops across my yard
twilight creates shadows
bigger than life
Like dreams

Stops at one floral laden bush
takes a distasteful bite
spits out the sour fruit
Seeds propagate

More flower bearing plants ahead
strong legs plunge bunny forward
into thorn protruding arms
Rose bed

One bite then a painful dislodge
red petals lay upon bloody wounds
A sniff – a snort – a shake of a leg
Lesson learned

      Adult knowledge negated with a promise of temporary ecstasy. 😔

      Oh but those red, juicy petals. So seductive, so enigmatic, so hypnotizing. Thorns? What thorns? 🥀
