Jen H. Poet Rhyme

Roses, Violets, and Cookies

Roses are Red
Violets are Blue
Cookies are Sweet 
And so are You

But...

The Roses are parched
The Violets are Dead
The cookie jar's empty
And too much went unsaid

And...

The Roses never had a chance
The Violets won't rise
The Cookies were goners
And this is good-bye
