A large, silky white bloom with a crimson center.

Swamp lights

Posted on by Bruce

Pure, white, silken

beacons, crimson-stained

offerings of hope

in the morning mist.

Hibiscus mosheutos,

wild and sublime,

the swamp mallow

marks this boggy way.

Oh, that you could light

all our shadowed paths.
