We Are the Stuff from Which Daydreams are Made
Begonias have colors that blur
red to rose to pinkish to tinted white
Leaves from darkest green to light
They huddle together to grow
So enjoying the closeness
Kept watered
They will stay and stay throughout
The summer and then some
Their thoughts create a glowy mist
Around their forms
They sleep at night
But daydream one-story-after-the-other
During coolish summer mornings.

Love the allusion to The Tempest and the sound of the word “begonias” and the thought of begonias dreaming and huddling together.
