Flora

our kindred

coded

poesy

fading

failing

from the very moment

you found it

in your hands

my whispered

particular promises

for you only

petal borne

complex yet

simple sentiment

temporary

as our days

elemental

all of the things

I want to shout

I need

the world

to know

I cannot die

with this unsaid

pressed dry

safe booked

stored and secret

coded corsage

never worn

above your heart

our summer garland

dust
