Next to the big window, close to the radiator, The greenest of thumbs, watered and pruned, You kept me. Cheerful leaves thrived on me thirstier, greener, each passing week. Sun-kissed blushed petals Bloomed within, around spring All my flowers in your vase Sitting by your bedside place You’ve lost your sweet touch But you could be a florist Thirstier, weaker, Each passing week the soil now bleaker overgrown thorns Next to your big window Life slips away

Indoor Rose
Next to the big window, close to the radiator, The greenest of thumbs, watered and pruned, You kept me. Cheerful leaves thrived on me thirstier, greener, each passing week. Sun-kissed blushed petals Bloomed within, around spring All my flowers in your vase Sitting by your bedside place You’ve lost your sweet touch But you could be a florist Thirstier, weaker, Each passing week the soil now bleaker overgrown thorns Next to your big window Life slips away
