Eerie Indiana Drabble: Standing Guard

[froodle]

Night was falling and the wild flowers that carpeted the gentle rolling slopes at the foot of Wolf Mountain were closing up shop for the night. Mother bluebells dipped deep to kiss their children atop their curving petal heads, wishing them pleasant dreams and a tomorrow full of sunshine and light spring rain. Dandelions with pleasant open faces of vibrant yellow drew hardy greenery about themselves, their expressions closed-off at the coming of sleep.

Only the jasmine remained, white flowers spread wide towards the falling night and the awakening stars. It watched over the silent rows of muted colours, waiting.
