No moonlight illuminated the paths this night
The blackness appeared more intense like that of rich velvet
Yet I knew something waited just beyond
Their scent was heightened by the their lack of visual beauty
I knew what I would find, but I did not know just as the blackness appeared more intense this night, so to were their colors
In previous years I’ve ventured out after dark
Please take a moment to see what past forays have revealed
The Iris and the Lily 
Wow!!! This is so exciting. The spots on that lily are magical. What a great idea.
I did a post entitled ‘Night Moves’ last summer. It had slugs and giant worms in it, so nobody loved it except my biologist friends. I should have done flowers instead. This is great. Maybe I should do a post on my Fairy garden at night! Thanks.
I will have to check out your past post! I love creepy crawly things. My next post will be of the spiders I saw the same night!
