The mealy sage spices up the petals of the flowering herbaceous perennial , with its purple colored breaths of calm fresh air, and sits upon this post with other scants of the laden green garden, through whites and oranges with green leaves as accents.
These flowers all bloomed on the ground, and lay in slumbrous whispers there, but brought complete and together from their Oklahoma soil, to the fresh, clear, beautiful bouquet, perched high on this post, for all the world to see.
Your time on earth is short, whether left on the lowness of the ground or riding high to make the scene, but your flavors and colors rise above the rest, and make feeling the looks of others, mean more, than life so grand.
