Flowers Are Special
Flowers are special;
even weeds often have
startlingly beautiful blossoms
that make one forget about allergies
till the first sniffle
or watery eye…
So, what are we to conclude?
That something pleasing to
the eye can, sadly, be little more
than an optical lie--
As with every rare
and appealing scent:
not all, necessarily, Venus
or Clark Kent….
