Where the Flowers Die

WHERE THE FLOWERS DIE Beyond the fence we shouldn't go, not even look, if we're alone, nor see some things we should't know. My innocence has died, although, I'm still the child I've always known, and hide the me I want to show. Out of this wasteland, what can grow, where only dust has ever blown, too where, we never even know. The Golan seems an empty show the yellows, browns of rock and stone, where we must make some flowers grow??? © ron wilson arbuthnot aka vee bdosa the doylestown poet

This is a form of sonnet I have not looked into yet, but I shall. Today, I think they take the literal translation of "Sonnet" from the Italian original meaning and translate it to "song." It could be anything. Maybe even Itsy bitsy teeny ween yellow polka dot bikint, or Please Mister Custer, I don't wanna go..." I don't know. My next book has been published and will be released Nover 10, WRITING SONNETS IN YOUR SLEEP, is the title. Thanks Judy, I will check into modern sonnet.
