I planted them
in your backyard
at night
in a dirt patch
the stained seeds
an old lady bewitched
they grew flowers
not fruit
white and pure
sweetly scented
you were amazed
the neighbors buzzed
the flowers grew
tall and wild
you picked a few
for your kitchen
handed even more
out to friends
and family
the postman
until that one
fateful day
you didn’t come
out of the house
and everyone
wanted to know
who poisoned you
with the flowers
you
grew
Everyday Strange 
That’s great. Love that one!
