Sensitive Briar

"A sensitive plant in the garden grew
And the young woods fed it with silver dew
And it opened its fernlike leaves to the light
And closed them beneath the kiss of the night"
P B Shelley

It getting hard to find this plant since most people consider it trouble for its weak wood/structure. My Mom asked me to bring a bloom to her while I was home last weekend. I found many along the pond bank near the house but didn't photograph. When I saw these after returning today, I noticed the blooms were starting to die. Hope it wasn't an omen. I need to do a few back blips this evening.
