What’s the story of the smashed flower on the sidewalk
Was it?
Blown off by the wind, or
thrown away in anguish
What’s the story of the smashed flower on the sidewalk
Was it part of a wreath?
Adorning a maiden’s hair and adding to her beauty, or
Providing solace to a devotee being offered to a deity
What’s the story of the smashed flower on the sidewalk
Did it?
Make two hearts meet and lead to a happily ever after, or
Break a heart and lead to a forever unrequited love
What’s the story of the smashed flower on the sidewalk
Did it land here?
As a result of the changing seasons through nature’s course, or
As a victim of manmade changes through unnatural cause
What’s the story of the smashed flower on the sidewalk
Can we?
Ever know the full truth, or
We’ll have to satisfy our curiosities through our assumptions
The contrasting is well done. I like the last line. And I do want to know what happened to the smashed flower on the sidewalk!
Thanks a lot, Cinzia. I’m afraid that story is gonna remain a mystery 🙂
