Vanity Flowers

What wholesome fragrance

What beauty before my eyes

Amazing; at first just a seed

Then an entire new meaning

Such a lively bouquet

From a deep red to a soft lavender

Or... I can be wrong

Instead, a demon seed

A flower of fire and vain

A simple ***** and the beauty just dies

The ugliness reveals itself when it wilts

And it becomes the personal flower of expression in the garden of words

The flamboyant arrangement

How bright the beauty of orange

Shows us the passion for life

The innocence of the white flower is just known as simple beauty

This innocence is shared by the pink flower to also express happiness

Although the friendship flower its the one that ****** me

Its sunny yellow

The color that brightens every room

To know that the green flower is the one that everyone wants

It's wealth and good fortune

Yet it's the hardest to find

Another rare one is the serenity

The peace this world needs

Such beauty and significance of the blue flower

The lavender that I hold is for elegance

It's the most precious and delicate

The second to last flower I hold is red

She looks so evil yet so warm with love, strength, passion and heat

It's the most common, and just thrown around as if it meant absolutely nothing

Finally one of the most beautiful and rare

So vain and deep in color

So vain in significance

It's the one I choose to keep

It's my favorite

The purple flower so royal and with such pride

Not one *****

It's my favorite sin

So lonely

Yet the surest cure for vanity is loneliness

So ill wilt away with the beauty of vanity in my hands symbolized by this purple flower
