Poem version one-thoughts completed in less than 15 seconds:
A garden of flowers
ripe for the picking
and into your hands
I place my love,
except they were
once beautiful and
thriving in my garden
until you came along
and married me.
Poem version two-thoughts took longer than 5 minutes:
In a world full of characters
a pinch of yellow sunshines,
a dash of red flowers and
a sprinkle of pink hearts,
I often wonder what in the
world could be more beautiful
than picking a bunch of flowering beauties
from their homes in the country
and sending them off into a container-filled
with watery tears, just to be looked at by
the next buyers for love…

Author’s note: I’ve decided to write poetry instead of taking my own photograph(s) for Matt’s weekly photo challenge: colorful.
Hello Flynn, nice, and good luck!
