A Two Flowered Flower Pot Poem by ronald stroman

the small white flower:
wanted all the water,
in the flower pot,
and the tall green one:
all the sun
and when both,
got what “each” wanted:
the green one sunshine
and the other rain,
neither would share,
when the solution was there;
and that’s the reason… they’re both dead.

the green flower: from dehydration & sunburn,
moments after… the white flower,
swam & drowned: in the shade of “thirsty” greed.
