Honeysuckle
Description
It is towards the end of fall, and every other plant has lost its leaves, but honeysuckle persists. Her tapered leaves are still dark green, despite the cool weather. Honeysuckle isn’t from here, and marches to the beat of her own drum. She doesn’t care that she’s different. She likes to be able to keep green longer and provide for animals. She also likes that she works harder and longer than everyone else, and it shows. She’s still growing long after everyone else is asleep.
