A flamboyant flower

A flamboyant flower
taunts and
towers .
Over every
clever
clean green
clover .
That is left
to shrivel
itself away
within the
senescent
shadows
of solemn
senile shrubs.

Thank you

And I thoroughly enjoy your company.

Alliteration I use or alliterate one letter so it doesn’t get convoluted and it will have a nice flow.

hello Edward,

within the
senescent
shadows
of solemn
senile shrubs.

sounds like a get-together-dinner with my family!

*hugs, Cat

p.s.
I hope you are well
