Thirteen Ways To Look At Flowers

1
In the middle of nowhere,
The only eye-catching article
was a lonely flower.


2
He was born so pure,
Like a flower
Where million others are just as naïve.

3
The flowers fell as the autumn wind blew.
It was a start to a new chapter of his life.


4
Two parents and their boy
Walk out of school.
Two parents and their boy with flowers
Walk out of school.


5

I simply do not care,
If the stamen
Or the pistil,
Is the flowers' genitals
Or in fact, anything at all.

6
Students filled the gym
With rows of chairs.
The students in gowns
Laughed, cried and congratulated.
Flowers
Were handed
For an indecipherable cause.

7
O beautiful muse of the wild,
Why do you make me wonder?
Do you not see how this flower
Has fallen petals
For a woman like you?

8
I speak English,
and Spanish as well;
But what I do not speak
Is "women"
Who knew flowers weren't enough on Valentines'

9
When the bouquet flew across the room,
She caught the flower
Amongst many other women.

10
At the sight of the flowers
Sitting in the vase.
Even the boy of innocence
Had already become a man.

11
He held her hands
In the ICU.
Just, a little more time,
For that he prayed.
The flowers bowed their heads
For her.

12
Sorrow piled on me.
Flowers, are not helping.

13
It had rained all day.
It was raining
And it was going to rain.
My flowers rested
On her grave.
