Silent Music.

Fay Slimm.

 

 

Silent Music.

 

The tune of water pouring in porcelain
feeds ready stalks
while dead leaves cut and discarded
relieve crowded stems to 
settle sweetpeas and lilies for regaling
by scent any tense mood.

 

An armful of garden's floral offerings
petal themselves
gently into fresh water and
within a few moments of watching
rose-stillness stress improves.

 

Flora the mystical Goddess refines
nature's singing
so that flowers' silent music
may be felt by listening poets like
me who perception pursue.
