Sturt Desert Pea, roadside, Pilbara mining region, Western Australia
It’s Sunday morning, five am
he’s alone in bed
remembering her feet
tangled in sheets
soft, supple,
nails painted shiny, Sturt Pea red
a dawn bird

Thanks! They are incredible looking flowers and I’m always thrilled to find them when I’m in the North of the state.

It really is, Eliza. I found this at the Perth Zoo. It is a large shrub covered in these flowers. I must return and ask them the name. I’d love one in my garden.
