Misunderstood appeal, never found. The way of things, beauty a trivial notion others may bear, indulge for given to them everything that allowed it to transpire. Accepted the fate hand dealt, handled with a grace it did not bear well.
Meandering that which drew silent presence to the thick growth of flora, purpose lacking, unneeded when accustomed had it grown to carve out a path all its own. Falsehood proven this time, beneath the sweet scent drawn together into heady aroma, numerous the blooms grown full and beautiful beneath the gentle touch of spring light, another. Earthen and distinct, in the hidden strands of its coat lodged, deep the breath expelled through dark nostrils, next seeking it.
Distance closing, steps not quickened from languid pace, tread careful, woven progression seeking not to crush the blooms that clustered about. Short the time before they were found, familiar one while other was lacking from recent memory, curiosity gentle, driving force behind approach. Sudden huff, audible the breath, exposed lips curling. Strange the sensation, lacking the drag of old fabric, breeze gentle against, shadowed beneath raised hood.

Forth drawn, nose twitching, inspected the incomplete adornment. Still was there distance between self and other, a figure enjoyed, presence soothing compared to most, to mark them as anything significant beyond it.
