flowers
from seeds, and seeds
from flowers, the ground tills
itself as the seasons
roll forward in
time’s span
the wind
cannot hold back
the changes, no matter
when changes make beauty
shine brighter in
being

Hello and welcome! I love the photo of your dog. What a cutie! This Badger hexastich sequence is excellent. I especially like the impermanence of time moving on in this piece. Well done. ❤

Colleen,
Thank you so much! I had fun with this syllabic form, trying to internalize it. Your “cheat sheet” is very inviting!
