A Wildflower Poem by Doris Cornago

A Wildflower

Rating: 5.0


As I was
Passing by
Flowers so blue
Or of a different hue
Scattered in the field
Dancing with the wind
Frolicking on the thought
Today is a day well spent
Tomorrow brings showers
Shouldn't bother, fetch me
A bundle, even if petals fall
One by one, whisper a tune
Hopeful in the gloom of my
Room, friends laid to rest
Are bouquets of flowers
Brightened my days
Delighted me in my
Loneliest, even as
I am among all
Just a wild
Flower

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Life is short, we are often told, but at the same time, it could not be foretold when it will end. So, like wildflowers, why don't we make every day count and throw caution to the wind? Rainy days are already a given, so take in sunshine as much as you can, the same with the company of friends.

This is for my friend Gloria Soriano who passed away before Easter Sunday. She loved all my posts especially my poems, and yet, we have never met, only through Facebook. She and I are wildflowers enjoying the sunshine, unmindful of the rain in our lives.: -)
