“Flowers in Bloom”

He bought her flowers.

He watched them bloom.

He watched as she attended them.

He watched as the seasons came and went,

and how the flowers changed.

He watched time turn her hair white.

He watched as he mind began to drift.

He watched as she slowly lost all her petals,

and eventually withered away.

Just like the flowers she’d used to tend.

 

He bought her flowers.

He took them to her new resting place.

Always signed.

Her sweet admirer.
