A flower that’s on the ground
Once did blossom,
Perky petals in vibrant color
Lay hovering in the pleasant wind
the mystic scent in fresh air
created a magic spell
snuggled in a pulpy bed
shining with each ray of the Sun
they cuddled and kissed
A soft touch created a stir
Both fell from the bunch
Smooching fine sand and dust
as if it was their long lost friend
The distance from fresh to pale
was conquered in seconds
onlookers passed by,
none bothered to care
once that stood out
fell prey to a curious stare
