Yard Sale of Thoughts

Nature’s Vanity

Katie Frances Hartless

Flamingo trees stand,

one foot before the mirror,

styling their new leaves.

After soft shower,

Spring primps itself by the sink,

nature’s vanity.

      🤣 Oh yes, the definitely think that song is about them. I think the next weight loss crave should be standing on one leg all day. We already know sitting kills…next we discover, standing on two legs kills. 🦩💦
