Grandpa's Old Garden
Before I'm completely out the door
My grandma hands me a big old glass green vase
Filled with dust and dirt, but slightly wet from being rinsed
I head out into the old garden
I say hello to may friends the flowers
They say hi back
Doing what they do best
The roses stand tall and smile at me
Romancing where their next home will be
Who they will be paired with
“Will I be paired with the red or white rose? Who knows”
I continue walking and greeting the flowers
Something catches my eye
The silly ones popped out into my sight
The daises looked at at me and giggled in me shadow
They bounced and bumped into each other in the wind
Giggled to each other about absolutely nothing
Just that they are blessed with life
Another day
“Wow look at the sun today isn't it beautiful?”
I made my way into the shadier part of the garden
I find my shyest friends there
The lilacs perk up at the sight of me , but continue to shy away
Such friendly and beautiful flowers yet so shy
“Its nice to see you again”
Next I head to the road
Were my best friends are
They are the unique ones
But they are still so beautiful
The iris almost calls me to them once I get close
Sticking their tough out at me whether mad, sad, or happy with me
In a way they they are steadfast
Always six petals
The are steadfast
“Hi! How are you?”
My trip is almost over yet I'm not done
The vase is almost full
Its getting dark
“I have to harry!”
The daffodil had its head down
It was sad and frowned
Almost as if were crying
I went to the flower
Brought its chin up to my face
He was the last one
I added him to the vase
To the middle of it
Its head perked up
And smiled at me
“Its time to go now”
It was time to get going
I had to go
I really wanted to see grandpa
Who was healing in the hospital
