Well it's that time of year. Time to mow the lawn. I look outside and it’s a cloudless sky with the sun shining brightly. I go to a my white shed and grab the lawnmower. I start the engine and start mowing. Up down, up down over and over until I get to the grass next to my window and see a what looks like a whithered flower.

I should give it some water. I say in my head. I start for the watering can. After filling it with water I go back to the plant and water it. I nicked my finger while watering and blood drips down with the water. It didn’t stop bleeding until I stopped watering.

The rest of the day flys by and eventually it’s time for bed. I look up and see a full moon. Shining brightly like the sun against the cloudless sky. I look down and see a dark read crimson flower kind of like blood.

That wasn’t there before. I say in my mind. Not long it starts pulsing like it had a beating heart. Red vein-like lines appear on the flower. Pulse. It’s gone Pulse. It’s back. I watch fascinated, entranced even. After what seemed like hours I finally went to sleep.

I tried to recreate what happened over and over but nothing happened until it was a full moon. I called it Blood Flower.
