Flowers

Do not mention                         this:

                            In theory
Not practice.

                            Do not run
A red-light                              unless you
                    Are electric:

                      Eloquent
Gap: garden

Gardening-_      guarding enough      to eat.

I've never been to the Tuileries:

There we were:         hummingbird

In Oklahoma         in memory_-

More real than          really here:

Why else would our day

Have been a disappointment? Thankfully

Flowers-possible paradise.
