Iris
She sat among the irises,
her irises ringed with
irises, the flowers swaying sideways in the wind
a flower child in the wild
her inner wild growing
wild and even more wild the more she sat in them
a soft magic called from the earth
as she sat upon the earth and
among the earth, it whispered her name from deep within
