A bunch of flowers <br />Sat in a vase <br />Colourful and lonely <br />A mind looks at them <br />Wondering <br />What is it they have to say <br />Are they a thank you <br />Or a gift of love <br />Are they an apology <br />Or given in remorse <br />Perhaps they are for nothing <br />Given to bring a smile <br />The mind looks on <br />Wondering for a while <br />The flowers sit in their vase <br />Unmoved by thought <br />Or the reason given to them <br />A little water at their base <br />To keep them fresh for a while <br />They are the end of the day <br />Just flowers in a vase<br /><br />Matthew Holloway<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/flowers-in-a-vase/
