Yesteryear’s seedlings
Budding blossoms
Overtaking fragrant memories
This year’s rose garden

Written in response to Rebecca Cuningham @ fakeflamenco June 2022 poetry challenge
This month Rebecca has challenged us to write a naani poem. It is an untitled poem of four lines without rhyme, and of twenty to twenty-five syllables. This month’s topic: something that has changed over time.
This is beautiful, Suzette. So much said in a few lines. Such an evocative naani. Wow.
