There were two flowers in the garden
One yet to bloom
the other already.....bloomed

They both bloomed soon enough,
What the other flower did not know was that-

the bloomed flower was already hollow
Eaten long ago on the inside
it had died with neglect,
while the other flower
waited in anticipation
With no water one flower died
The other thrived
Now both flowers have bloomed side by side
Happy together, they look so happy together

But one flower had died
And though crisp on the outside,
It's insides are dried
