Another Poem About Flowers
6-24-17


30-Day Image Prompt.


Flowers don't apologize
or make blue skies brighter.
They won't prevent or get
a sunburn (though
some will soothe one).
How many dozens have
preceded a divorce
or celebrated death?
Nothing says "I <blank> you"
more than
this thing
I pulled from the ground.

Cut out the middleman.
Always give cash, or
at least a gift card.
Flowers are for suckers.
