The Flowers' POV


buzzing in our dreams
soft honeybee hum wakes us
we are kissed, seduced 
our passion remnants in you ~
in yearning grief, we shrivel

Yes, we always talk about flowers, but we usually don't hear from them - nice, but sad ending!

I really really like this. What's POV? Did this get an award? It almost seems to fit the contest idea of summer ending and autumn beginning

POV is short for point of view, Andrea😊 this was originally written for an Instagram contest, but it didn't place there...
