A Sensitive Plant
A sensitive plant in a garden grew,
And the young winds fed it with silver dew,
And it opened its fan-like leaves to the light,
and closed them beneath the kisses of night.
~Percy Bysshe Shelley, "The Sensitive Plant," 1820
This lovely little flower has appeared in my garden this year. Don't know what it is but it wraps itself up tight at night and unfurls in the sun. If anyone has any idea what it is, please let me know.
