What do you do when you come across A traffic-light of a plant? To stop, or further to thrive and grow… What does the plant really want? I passed this plant, My eyes went pop… The rest of it was green, But this leaf made me stop! Sometimes,one can be just a leaf Amongst many others, several hundred… And yet, quietly show how one can Be different…by being red!

Delmar Blvd, U City, St. Louis, 010713.This was a small plant in a bed of grass on the pavement as I walked along.
