Occasional Impressions

Gemini Twin

The Path

A child has passed before
And plucked and dropped with clumsy hands
The flowers that lined the way -
So greedy and so gay.

They lie awhile, joys past
Not yet forgot, nor still possessed,
And court the empty sky
Then slowly shrivel, die.

Spring flowers withered by the sun.
