The second of my collections of poems written for "Express It In Eight."

As usual these days, I choose blog format because it offers more space for the work.

Roses

Eighteen yellow roses came today
but I seem to miss the things they say
tomorrow they will die and fade away
and you and I will find another way.

I don’t know why they should be yellow
the question is more thought than bellow
but I retreat and let it mellow
that’s me you see, a laid back fellow.
