The Pink Carnation
The pink flower that is called a carnation
I received a sad but yet odd invitation,
To a get together with all my family and no strangers
It seemed nice knowing there was no danger,
Why does everyone have a pink carnation
Is the color a symbol of elimination,
I feel at ease in a sad sort of way
I don't believe this was suppose to be a happy day,
As I went further in to the candle lit room
I have a sense of a pass life that ended in gloom,
When I look around the room I see so many pink carnations
I know now deep inside these beautiful flowers mean it is a final destination.
