the flower

it blooms, withers and dies - so depressing.

it drinks, withers and dies - so sad.

it basks in the sunlight, withers and dies - so apt.

it glows radiant colors, and fragrance - so unforgettable.

 

the first flower

your first flower

the epitome of a profound perfection

this flower was given life, nurtured and chosen

to match your beauty

and fill your heart with a memory.

and fill your eyes with tears of joy.

this flower of yours is from me...

-its o.k. if i were a flower that withers and dies if i knew i was your perfect bloom.

I wrote this last night for a girl, then I gave it to her with the very flower I speak of, hand typed on my old typewriter and special paper that is super old. She loved it.
