Tears on the vase
Tears on the vase It simply gave up and died inside I picked the silk blossom so fresh and new waiting to unfold its petals just for me I bought a new vase and filled it with fresh water there it stood and waited my caress I gave it my tears, my laughter and smiles as I cupped it softly in my palms The bud so sweet resting almost bigger than my hands It stood alone for so long sharing and watching me dream Unfolding its petals to show me its beauty I used to gaze so lost and so long Brushing my fingers against the soft stem Making it dance, dip and bend It flourished and drank me in Never letting me see anything but its pureness it grew until one day it felt another stem slip by its side Unmoving and steadfast it stood it shared, it sipped and waited for my hand Then I added another more than one the water was shared the caresses too Then the sips got smaller as did the touch, the cupping of my hand It's stood and opened so wide its petals worn with nothing but pride It never faltered but watched as I caressed the others by its side as I had once done it It knew the fresh water was not it's to sip it stopped drinking and stood quiet its head dipping Then one by one its petals dropped like tears they slipped slowly over the vase *authors note,so gray and cold, out today, sorry about the sadness of this poem but... it's the mood I seem to be in.. |
