Linden flowers

In spring, my mother
would send us to the park
to pick linden flowers for tea.

Today, sitting in the shade,
I thought I heard her calling,
but it was only a breeze.

  1. This is beautiful and poignant. The flowers are picked (and thus pass away), as has your mother, who’s voice seems to be carried on the breeze. I came across your blog due to your posting (today) on Vita Brevis, and I look forward to reading more of your work. Kind regards – Kevin
