hydrangea blossoms
Hydrangea ages so gracefully.
Purple and blue blossoms turn shades of
mossy green and pinks
reminding me of a summer sunset,
making me want to grab a box of pastels and start sketching,
and for some reason I imagine
if you were to put a petal in your mouth
it would melt on your tongue,
leaving behind a taste
both sweet and tart.
