during my travels
of all the herbs and plants left behind
the marigold alone did not survive
except
there is a single blossom
autumnal orange with patches of gold
broken off I suppose as its green stem dried
that blossom it still thrives
without water or soil yet warmed by the sun
at rest where I found it upon returning home
on the tabletop next to the kitchen window
we’ll see how long it lasts
Just stunning!
Ghostly…
Beautiful, words and images.
Thank you 😉
