I have seen this flower for years but never knew it's name. Who would believe it is called
Philadelphia fleabane (Erigeron philadlphicus) - really? It is also called common fleabane, daisy fleabane, Robin's plantain, frost root, and Skervish - really. The flowers contain a chemical that if burned can drive away fleas. Even if they are not burned you will note that there are no fleas here.
They are interesting in a daisy way.
The Sunset Sky
When I see the clouds shined by sunset,
I have to go home now.
When I see the birds shade,
I have to go home now.
I have to go home.
It is sad.Why does today end here?
See you tomorrow?
Tomorrow and today are
Different.
Today is only today.
Tomorrow is different.Today's me doesn't exist
In tomorrow anymore
And, neither does today's you.
there doesn't exist
todays's touch anymore.
Nobody knows that
Today and tomorrow are completely different.
That's why I cry
In this evening.
In this shiny bright evening,
Today is closed.
In this time,
When a bulbul's voice
Slashes the sky,
It is the same feeling.
All that I've earned,
I don't need.
The annual fleabane's white bouquet
That I gathered
Is withering
In the hands
Like the letter that was never read.
I'll throw it away onto the meadow
And run away
In order not to be seen by the first star.
To be honest,
I want to be absorbed in the dark sky
And disappear
Because I can see the uninhabited vacancy
From the sky forever
and might even see today's back there.
