there was a flower in my yard
it was real small
so i dug it up
and gave it a little flower pot…
Flower
you bloomed,
and now your petals
are melting
toward the mulch…
Like a sunflower’s seeds
too many to count
I miss you
I should hope you know,
that there’s more to them,
than just the structures…
I don’t rightfully know,
what a thistle should look like…
A hungry rabbit,
eyed the flowers standing there…
There’s a mid-summer bloom,
of the flowers that were missed…
Resting on flowers,
Lazing the days all away…
Eat just one flower,
And you’ll feel the full power!..
It must have looked good,
Waving in the gentle breeze…
