after another poem of that name




flowers in december

 

you and frida   strong women

attracting strong men

strong men may be   may not be

 

precisely what strong women need

but who controls    want

what strong woman 

would choose a quiet woman

 

frida did   sometimes   you have  

for now   i saw flowers in december

frost flowers bloom and curl

 

from the litter of last autumn's leaves

that is what a quiet woman sees  

and wonders   is it a vision worth sharing

is it   she wonders   strong enough

One can't know. That's what's so aggravating. Nicely written.

I am perplexed by this poem. Flowers in december for me would represent a late bloomer, unexpected beauty. Than there is Freda with her later gender conflicts. Strong women attract strong men, yes, but need a quiet woman. Still perplexed.:)
Beautiful but not easy to understand.
