Blooms Have Come To An End

Blooms Have Come to an End There is a flower with blooms that are continual That are also biennial or may be perennial Steadily desiring to return year after year Until when winter approaches and is near. When winter has arrived and is finally here All of the still blooms soon start to disappear Until they have all dried and become brown And appears to be worn like a nightgown. Early spring they attempt to return again And as the more that spring tries to sets in Buds again will become a bountiful bloom For a favorite vase you find in every room. Each cycle in the year will come and go Truly so lovely when watching flowers grow Before dying blooms have reached an end To beautiful wife bouquet do want to send.
