No flowers

I'd never say no
To flowers
Affection bouquets
Explosions of colour
On any drab day

However, to the offerings
As a sorry for your
Everything done
Begone and take them with you

I too, have adorned
A loved one with blossoms
In the hope of a smile
In the hope of hope
Though never to cover over
The deep soil of wrongs

Now, no one to bestow
Or receive them from
My lover in nature and I
Such a generous one
