Prompt

Someone brought you flowers.


My Poem

You Brought Me Flowers


The Tuileres once witnessed
Our purple-petal prancing.
Lavender aflutter flew
Among our tipsy toes

Tyler roses twined in poses
While we twinned in elegance.
We knew that we would always dance,
And never dance just once.

Even when I couldn't stand,
Those precious calla lillies
Saw you swaying hand-in-hand
With my heart so willing.

Even when I lost the battle
My love, your orchids did witness bear
To your circle dance, entranced,
As you swirled 'round my cairn.

As I leave Miseria's moans
For freshly-budding shores,
I love you for the dances and for
Bringing me the flowers.
