revealed so long
this grain of wood

beauty, day lily, daylilies, details, fleeting, flowers, now, orange, photography, poetry, summer, tanka

it is love we all want
and all these ways
we go about looking for it-
how strange in my secluded spot
a stranger finds me

day lilies some have crossed the road

day lilies
some have crossed
the road
