I saw this today in a parking garage and took the picture, it was such a mystery

Soft baby's breath in prim nosegay abandoned in a parking bay. A whispered message left behind; perhaps a gesture was declined? An assignation underway? Meet me, my dear, floor three, bay A; I'll leave you there a small bouquet; you know which, your favorite kind, soft baby's breath. Lovers, perhaps, the kind that stray, who have to meet this secret way? Upon the spray, a note thus signed; my love for you is unconfined I'll prove, with buds, I leave each day soft baby's breath.

She saw the flowers and just left them there ? She must have seen them, because the note asking her to meet him there was left behind. Unrequited love can be such a sad feeling. Terry Your poem in intriguing. I cant leave it. I have read it over and over, trying decide what happened in that parking bay. Thank you for arousing my curiosity. I may have baby's breath on my mind all day! ! ! !
