Buttercup (Poem)

There was once a flower
Growing in isolation
Blooming in peace
There in the pavement

But in front of that pavement
Is a garden
Of thousand hybrid flowers
And buzzing bees

Bees would circle around the flowers
And these flowers would sing of lullabies
And dance,
Into the rhythm of the wind

But this flower in the pavement
Not one bee would circle around her
She never sings nor dances
She just bathes herself in sunshine

Poor that little flower!
From the garden she would hear.
They would stare at her in woe
While they started to dry up

They continue on living
And then drying
While she continues on breathing
And then living

Poor little flower,
They always tell her
But her sweetness remains
And her petals reclaim

Soon there is no more garden
No more hybrid flowers
There are only bees,
And their buzzing

They would circle around her
And buzz
But she covers up
Her sweetness is never going to dry up
