I went to pick wild flowers today


I went to pick wild flowers today, 
not the kind that scream and curse you, 
as you tilt and twist their stem, 
vandalizing a life too brief and brittle for beginners, 
but the kind that welcome you, 
with leaves that sway to touch your skin,
and pedals that quiver like ecstatic teenagers who have just been invited to a party.
