Friends in the Flower Garden
July 15, 2010
Miscellaneous hues,
From vibrant green to blue,
Surround me.
Each with an intricate pattern,
Each with a tale I’ll soon learn,
The hearts, the soul, even the leaves.
Each unique,
I can seek,
Them, but I’ll never,
Pick them,
For the petals atop the green stem,
Will wilt from puppetry.
I don’t favor one,
I am the sun,
Shining on everyone.
I fetch their water,
They don’t repay me a quarter,
But they do the same for me.
Friends are flowers,
And you shower,
Them when they’re parched.
