A Golden Lady


I thought, should I pick her and take her home?
Or should I leave her where she was born?
Should I let people smell her or tell them to leave?
Is she there to remind us of beauty and love?

I thought, should I pick her from ground so low?
Should I count the petals eenie meenie meinie moe?
Should I tear them off asking if he loves me or not?
Tell me Golden head, what are your thoughts?

The flower looked up into the sun
Her flowery scent was blown by the wind
The flowers all crouched and looked up to her
I couldn't pick, a golden lady, in prayer.

This is a beautiful flower and a beautiful poem. I'm glad you didn't pick the flower.

George - I don't like picking flowers.It feels like you are hurting them in ways you don't understand.I would much rather dig it up with the root and replant it.
