Description I had a lovely flower once.
It smelt of soap and foam.
I loved my lovely flower, then.
I was its only home.

But Lovely Flower withered, still.
Like all things good, it died.
My heart, for Lovely Flower, ached.
And with its death, I cried.

I had a lovely flower once.
It taught me how to smile.
It taught me how to cry inside;
Now it sleeps with the pile.

My lovely flowers; happy thoughts,
Descend while petals shed.
And I'll refuse the next few ones,
I hate the things they've said.

this is fabulously depressing!! i like the concept of the pile of flowers.. like with every new flower was your new attempt at happiness.... but then it died... again. fabulously depressing!

Thank you. I'm glad it wasn't too vague. I have some odd problem with writings things too vague. But, thanks. That was exactly what I was going for. : )

I usually don't like structured, rhyming poems but this one I really really like. Especially the line "My lovely flowers; happy thoughts,/Descend while petals shed."
