Pink Folds

In response to:


Per Sue W & Gerry C’s monthly Colour Challenge for May is the colour Pink! 
Interpret the challenge in any way you wish – Words, Pictures, Poetry or Rhyme.

Dew drops glide across your silken folds,
delicate petals of pink turn dark at the watery touch.
The heaviness of moisture plumps your inner pistils,
preparing you for the entrance of pollen laden bees.

Spring in its glorious renewal, its decadent nascency,
guides all creatures; flora, fauna, two legged and more to join in the joyful chaos that precedes
and proceeds the creation of life.

Each drenched petal surrenders into its release,
floating demurely on the breeze, rising and falling
before gently tumbling into the arms of the Earth,
a sweet, recognizable scent permeating its berth.
