In that very same bush
where I photographed
a leaf yesterday,
I noticed today
one last flower
hanging on for dear life.
All the others
have shriveled up
in the cooler weather,
bracing themselves
for what's to come.
But this one
is sticking around
as long as it can,
outliving and outshining
the others
simply because
it convinced itself it can.

The color of that flower seems almost unreal. It is such a radiant yellow. It's such a contrast to the death around it. It shines; almost as a beacon of light giving hope in the midst of darkness.
