< regrettably, it is sometimes the business
of yellow flowers to burn in summer >
ray heinrich
sometimes this is what it means to be a yellow flower
born late
of a cool, wet spring
only to be found by summer
sometimes
to be a yellow flower
means
to burn in summer
desperately
dreaming of spring
when burning in summer
most yellow flowers
desperately
dream of spring
while others
driven mad
will claim to be the sun
