The long-stalked,
stiff and strong.
So beautifully soft,
long-petalled.
Half-petals
feather-like.
So many memories.
Laughter,
holding hands,
throatful of
tears,
looking out the window,
the blue curtain,
love on the floor,
silent passions.
One for each petal,
these many memories.
Each time I see
these luscious flowers
vivid colours
of remembering.
So many memories
that no one else got
these
long-stalked flowers.
