Blossomed solitary, a flower unseen Colors missed; hues ignored Fragrances ne'er sniffed Scattered into emptiness By planters 'n florists Makers unmaking their creatures Leaving them derelict Forlorn in a floral paradise Alone inside a packed bouquet Kindred flowers, strangers by design Precious little to share Save for empty stares © Alwi Shatry, All Rights Reserved.

Your use of imagery in this poem is well-nigh perfect. I could see and smell the flowers. The last stanza was perfect.
