When flowers are born
It’s a staggering sight
Slap-happy colors –
Petals sitting tight.
But when it’s all over
When things decay
We shed no tears
We throw them away
But in the night watches
If you close your eyes
You’ll find that a flower
Never really dies
Try it, just try it
You’ll see that I’m right
Your mind’s eye will see it
And the flame will ignite.
This has been Thursday Verse Day with Lynniebeemuseoday.
I’ll probably delete this in my mind’s eye in the morning.
