Selling flowers
I saw a lady selling flowers
walking along where cars turn left
not much time to make the deal
maybe some folks want them
but they have to turn
or stop traffic
cars will honk
chaos
yikes
Every time I see them sell flowers
it reminds me of my mother
she used to have to do that
like a My Fair Lady
before she met Dad
I bring flowers
to her now
vases
full
But I don't buy them from the sellers
I just pick them from our garden
then arrange them in a vase
Some tall flowers, some short
complimentary--
yellow, purple
(magenta
daisies,
too!)
