I Got Flowers Poem by kawoya alosius

I GOT FLOWERS
I got a banquet but it wasn't my birthday,
Well packed and sprayed with good scents,
The banquet was filled with flowers,
Flowers that showed emotions,
Flowers that can be got once in a lifetime,
Oh... they harbored an instinct feeling,
Maybe he was feeling better,
Now that he had sent them.

I received a gift expensive was the gift,
As though it was crowned with a cap of brocade and pearls,
Never had i received it in life,
But it wasn't mother's day,
Nor was it women's day
It was partially congratuating me,
A big day was it in my life,
I knew i will never get it again.

I got flowers and flowers,
Not because it was valentine's day,
Because we had a fight last night,
And the ramifications were bitter,
For i had felt resentful and had to fight back,
Fighting for my freedom,
Fighting to get peace,
That's why i got flowers for the first tine,
And it was my burial day.
