My most beautiful flower Unnoticed allure and grace But I let it wilt and dry away Drenched and empty vase Like your heart I left to break Each day I wished and prayed To witness your blossoming face One night per year I hope to stay But it can never be the same Because all flowers die of age Inevitably leave us in dismay I just wish I'd taken care Of the flower I loved in every way. -djs

My night-blooming cereus
My most beautiful flower Unnoticed allure and grace But I let it wilt and dry away Drenched and empty vase Like your heart I left to break Each day I wished and prayed To witness your blossoming face One night per year I hope to stay But it can never be the same Because all flowers die of age Inevitably leave us in dismay I just wish I'd taken care Of the flower I loved in every way. -djs
