Flower

I came upon a fragrant flower Deep blue and green at midnight hour A smell from which I couldn’t name Distraught was I it sounds so lame I stuck my nose inside its bloom Breathing deeply it made me swoon So fresh and sweet but deeply dark Blue and green it’s petals did part It hugged me thus and oh so tight Warming my soul in the cold at night When morning came we did depart The plant retreated back to the dark It’s shriveled petals of blue and green Now long lost as if a dream
