Its Mid September
The brilliance of the ironweed
Has surrendered to the goldenrod
Branches of the weeping cherry
Sway in the breeze almost bare
Fields day by day change colors
In early autumn display
Along fence lines and pastures
Purple aster intensely glow
The butterfly weed fewer visitors
The nest in the eve empty
Its mid September

nice!
that reminds me, i plowed up an old weed field with goldenrod and planted wildflowers.
they're still blooming and beautiful.
i'm apprehensive about doing this because i'm a firm believer in protecting native species regardless of how they look.
i mainly did this for the birds and bees but now i wonder if i should have.
and my okra is still blooming like crazy. best okra crop i ever had and the blooms are beautiful.
i never had okra taste like this before. it gets sweet after it's cooked.
