You, Sweet Peas,
seduce me with your glorious smell
each morning
drawing me out of the house
onto the deck
to drink your syrupy scent
with deep inhalations
Thanks for getting me outside
into the crisp morning air.
In the middle of a Canadian October
you defy the season
still joyously climbing
climbing
thriving
and making me feel
that summer has yet to depart!
Thank you.
