Next Season

The flowers in my yard have died

Their golden leaves were cast aside

They do all look so sad and frail

They give no scent when I inhale

What has caused this tragic scene

Who commenced this cruel routine

I don’t suppose I need a reason

My flowers will be back next season

Well written!! Where do you get your inspiration for your work??

Thank you slankslim! I started writing poetry after a nasty breakup but this specific one I wrote after I walked outside and saw that the one rosebush in my yard had died and withered away. I remember how it used to be so colorful and at when I saw it I started thinking about the nature of change.

well i appreciate your words, and I look forward to reading more of your poems in your future post
