Wild Flowers Poem by Andrew Cuthbert

Wild Flowers



Brought up on
Khakibos
With its skinny black seeds
That stick to socks and sweaters,

Cosmos,
With its tall, pithy stems
Perfect for young boys'
Arrows,

The fleshy leaves of spiky
Aloes
And the desiccated beauty of
Everlastings,

Nothing prepared him
For the aching delicacy of
Primroses
That tease the brain
On the hidden frontier
Between yellow and green.
