Born To Be Wild

 



wildflowers 

cannot be tamed  

born to be wild 

*


In years past I would pull these and try to get rid of them.

But eventually, I fell in love with them. 


*****


masked ... six feet apart  

no words pass between them  

waiting for school bus  




As I read these two poems months later I notice the contrast between the children at the bus stop who have been "tamed" and are wearing masks versus the wildflowers born to be wild.
