She Wept In Silence

she wept 
  in silence
       onto cascading
             flowers
 
       roses 
  and peonies
       in her wedding
            bouquet

Jenna, I loved the ambiguity of this septolet, allowing the reader to draw their own conclusion. Tears can be happy ones or sad, or oftentimes a combination of many emotions. The beauty of the flowers and the significance of the event adds to the gravitas, and all in only 14 words. I congratulate you for your win with this marvelous write ~ John

Hmmm. Gives one pause. Happy tears? Or sad? Very well-done Jenna! GL with this one! Linda

Hi, Linda, I smiled when I read your comment. It was my intent to leave the reason for her tears to the reader. Happy for marrying the man she loved, or sad because of it?
