Pink petunias in a faraway field

Where lovers twirl under the evening stars

Chamomile, from which a sickness is healed

Steadfast pansies constantly trapped in jars


A wistful orchid, she longs for a friend

And yet she is always planted alone

Roses, that blossom and bloom at spring’s end

In a meadow where children’s kites are flown


A diffident daisy, who weeps in pain

For he’s too often called repetitive 

Swamp mallows that flourish in heavy rain

And ivy, who’s oddly competitive


Petals intertwine to form a bouquet

Gifted to one as a promise to stay

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
