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.
