For many, after
This past week when
Twenty young lives were lost
To the daffodils’
“One flower, one stem,
One flower, one stem,”
Repeated
The marching grey clouds
Of December
The swirling, flowing flowers
Overcrowding a familiar hill
Out east and seemingly
On the other side of life-
A slope no one wants to touch
But we’ll eventually breathe someday
The others peek
Over the neatly cut hedges
From their warm encrusted souls
Heated by the sun-
Warming their soil
And by the way,
As if they didn’t know
It’s the same light
Shared
With those yellowing daffodils
