"The present contains nothing more than the past."
Henri Bergson
Even the lowliest vegetable plants
Bear the most wonderful blooms
White as Easter lilies,
Soft as egret's plumes.
Petals perfectly symmetrical,
Masterfully designed
Bustled about by bumblebees
Considering such a find.
Swaying on leafless green straw stems
Stately as elegant roses
Snowballs of flowers—onions
Scented as sweetly as posies.
