Outside my window
the world goes on
the dahlias keep blooming
till each one withers and is gone
The green beetle flutters its wings
humming loudly against my ear
deep inside, I worry about everything
as I do year after year
But life keeps on going
and the dahlias will bloom and go
the sun rises and sets each day
life goes on – that much I know.

Beautiful view outside your window, so radiant 🙂
I love dahlias as well. I’ve made an exhibition piece with Dahlias last year. All are from my garden 🙂 http://ikebanaweb.com/2015/07/18/the-essence-of-a-woman/ I would appreciate your opinion 🙂
Will definitely check them out! My dahlias grew to be huge this year some of them snapped their stems from the weight.
