English Engelska الإنجليزيّة
Buy flowers?
Never!
Lavish lilies
can never measure up to
Withering violas
blunt blueberry bushes
and bewildered yellow star-of-Bethlehem
Grandiose greenhouse reeking roses
can never remind me of
My evening walk in the sunset
the sky glowing pink
Walking near the river
chasing wild flowers
suddenly finding myself
face to face with a duck
Looking up and seeing my
apartment house in pink light
pointing to it like ET
with long trembling fingers
whispering: Home!
