Flowers And Roses Poem by Barry Middleton

Flowers And Roses



not so suitable for a vase
and that's a blessing
hibiscus are best left uncut

oh yes to adorn a lady's hair
they are lovely
but then so transitory

often true of fragile things
like untouched lilies
proclaiming summer heat

the iris in perennial grace
left in its place
a moment's silent breath

yet I will not resist the rose
but bring it to my love
she sheds a tear for it
