There is something sad, almost lascivious,
in the way a Lily offers her summer ruin.
Fragile pink lips curl back, proffer of stamens
heavy in pollen, before her petals drop.

Admirable admiral, you pay a courtesy visit,
last cluster of florets, galaxy bunched
on the Buddleia, your universe, for today.
