On the rocky hillside next to my house are
Orange wildflowers.
In my official Guide
A volume over 300 pages long
Sectioned by color
Only four pages are devoted to orange blossoms.
Mine are identified as
Siberian Wallflowers
Which are related
Somewhat distantly
To cabbages.
They are fragrant and upright, not too tall
Heady and sweet in the sun.
I watch the bees
And the rocks.
I watch the flowers
Orange as rare as true love.
