My Vase of Flowers Final Days

It's sad to see my flowers die that once gave beauty to the eye. Oh, Look! See their lavender leaves stretching out like arms opening wide for a good-bye hug! .

I often look at the cut flowers which are truly beautiful but they do not last long. These days I prefer a pot plant of some sort. Enjoyed this piece..Delice

So sad to see most dreams dying and mingling with dying bells especially at this time of COVID-19. Let keep hopes alive because our God is alive forever more. Awesomely inspiring piece dear Darlene. Keep them coming my dear friend. Love and hugs from me to you. Cheerio!!!!

Darlene: Because that was so cute, it makes me wonder why only one submission in 2017? Keep them coming or should I say "get them coming." Thanks for all you've shared with all of us on the soup. oldbuck

Hi, Jan, thanks for reading my poem. Toss them gently in the trash, then buy some fresh ones for more cash!

Thanks, Maureen. I'm glad you enjoyed. I guess any subject is good material for a poem. And as soon as I noticed those dying flowers, inspiration hit.
