A Lyric Note Set Out in Various Inks
A lyric note set out in various inks
Comes up from where it’s lain forgotten years.
A greeting card of flowers (but no pinks)
Of yellow, purples and the shade of tears,
This message tries to match inside the fold
Of glossy white. The wording is intense
And filled with passions, wishes, claims as old
As humans, or as blossoms, and as dense
As icy blood around a mammoth’s heart
Caught, frozen, unawares while eating flowers.
The lines and printed blossoms cannot start
Anew the long gone love or mammoth powers.
..It has the gall to mention purity.
…..It has a petal strong security.
