Hello Red

Magnolia Seed Pods, October 2021


My favorite shade of red greeted me on this morning's walk. 

I love the gloss of the pure red seeds. 

And they way they are perfectly encased in the cells of their pod.

I consider and count the promise of trees to come - 

    a grove of magnolias who will someday fill the air with their sweet scent 

        and shelter the birds and give shade to someone else's morning walk.
