Frost Kills

 One hard frost. On schedule. Suddenly there are spectres of flowers past. Some trees just give up the ghost, and their leaves are down in the count of a day. We saved the peppers, but the plants are gone. Some birds were unimpressed. They still take icy baths.

Sun flower beast

Sad coneflower

Impaled leaf

Skeleton suns

Canna that can't

Cosmos after the big bang

Mourning dove

Downed leaves

Holes where the peppers used to be

Too many saved peppers
