Flowers

Flowers 

flowers planted in a row 
red orange yellow green blue indigo 
out of their bush you pull and tear 
just to stick them in your hair 

their beauty is so flagrant 
evolution has made them so 
and they smell oh so fragrant  
bees and the breeze spread their pollen as they go 

they are plenty and a worthy foe 
to human destruction, worry and woe 
for the flowers shed no tears 
i’ll pluck them for you when we’re 

sitting close and when i whisper 
i miss you, i need you
i got you baby, for sure
my pretty flower, my love true
