geranium

not that they couldn't fly

geraniums
fly by some other means
gifted by other means

 standards above sky breaking 
means and the light itself

the light itself mind
you the light! is how green thought comes

to them

a flower does its work

standing nearby

in the hallway reckoning a door  standing on a  forgotten table  
coursing the plants scent of
geranium

this is a dessert poem- light and sweet :) though wholesome. i think you may have glanced at the soul of a geranium before writing!

I liked the idea that geraniums "fly by some other means/ gifted by other means." You show your reader the inner workings of the universe--that flowers have a dimension and a language that is uniquely their own. You show us that these flowers are in many places and are ready to share even when we do not notice them. These are beautiful sentiments.
