Today is Tax Day
in this Wildflower garden,
Blossoms lined to pay,
petals, leaves, stems, "Pardon.."
poked Yellow Primrose #three
to collection officer Bee
"Must I really give
what makes me live?"
Silence, then it starts,
"You take our parts!"
cried Purple Aster #seven
grabbing its pistol, M1911
"We Live! We Die!
but Beauty is our side,
us Flowers will always fly!"
