Hortensia Anderson: LA HAIE FLEURIE DE HAMEAU

I have returned to the hamlet of my childhood. The tiny village is bordered by hedges of white flowers aglow in the moonlight ― masses of honeysuckle drip nectar as jasmine sweetens the purple-black shadows cast by spikes of heady tuberose. The west wind remains in love with the hyacinth; the narcissus by the reflecting pool remain in love with themselves.

summer dream ―
the perfume atomiser
shattered glass
