To Those Sure I’m Going to Hell
The purple toadshade has never
withdrawn its canopy
from the toad unsure
of its protector’s
mangiven name.

this spring ephemeral
is abundant in our woods.
your poem is delightful
and your title is terrific!
I love the way the poem de-constructs the name of the wildflower. After a while, the double negative in the poem clicked with the title.
Fantastic!
Love it!
