Premium MemberA Florist In Nice

Roses and some violets, I'd say,
Make an especially nice bouquet
A florist in Nice
Used some in his piece,
But his customer refused to pay!

Premium MemberA Tree I Write Florist Inside Me-

In a kingdom full of documents
 a tree
A forlorn virtual storage
 parking paper words 
a tree 
cut down for me
 fashion into paper 
ink stains on them 
effort extensions 
and point editing
I can't read
 yet I write
 I can't see yet I fight 
open ended the pages still yet arcing
Trappings of a forest breeches the

the muscled biceps rotated smoothly
with grace and purpose as the
petaled red and blue grenade of
flora with ferns hurtled toward you 

the florist then alone, stood erect

curved the baby-blue sky to you,
but at

At a Florist Shop

I’m standing here at a florist shop,
For couples of minutes now, thinking
Which of these flowers I’ll choose;
Just for you, as a gift on our first year;
I have no idea, which one to pick;
They’re all fresh, pure and beautiful---
A labor of god’s gardener--- his pride;
But, when I saw you on the other side,
Of the street, with
