Magnolia

The magnolias originate in the pre-bee epoch. Magnolias were pollinated by beetles. There are two of these trees in our garden. Pink magnolia. White magnolia. Time is spent imagining the pre-bee epoch. Our garden is filled with small surprises. There is no special reason to compile lists of these small surprises. They occur in the moment. That is sufficient. Birds, for example. Red birds. Black birds. Birds originate in the pre-human epoch. They arrive from somewhere, perch in a wattle, cherry tree, even in the odd moment, a [magnolia]. They make the most extraordinary racket. Or no sound at all.
