iWalk.2020.05.23 Afternoon delight

The wind slackened in the early afternoon and I opted for a walk. These delightful flowers grow wild (or feral, at least) beside the road in what I would judge to be an inhospitable environment, although they seem to thrive. They are visible from passing cars, but perhaps mostly unseen. Enough foot and pedal traffic passes that maybe their efforts are not in vain.

Full many a flower is born to blush unseen,
And waste its sweetness on the desert air.
