Sun, love and flowers -------------------------------------------
I sit in the garden
While I wait for you to arrive
I look at all the flowers around me
Thinking how they represent stages of our relationship
Yellow daises remind me of how we started out
A soft fragile friendship
That quickly grew strong roots
The flowering cherry tree
Is the beginning stages of our love for eachother
Delicate and beautiful
The sunflowers
Remind me of all the happiness we’ve shared
As we’ve grown closer in the 3 years
Finally the red roses
They represent where we are right now
Strong and committed to eachother
Yet still full of fire and passion
I glance up and see you walking towards me
Your hands full of flowers
Daises, hydranes, sunflowers and roses
I smile as I think of how closely you echoed my thoughts
I get up and kiss you
As you give me the flowers
As I laugh and bow my head to smell them
I see the little card
I open it and read
“Will you marry me?”
I gasp and look up to see you down on one knee
With a ring in your hand
A ring shapped like a flower
I laugh and scream yes and run into your arms
Amid the flowers that have played such a important part
This is simply adorable.
There is no other way to describe it :D
It kind of threw me off at the beginning how it didn't rhyme and I thought that it was going to be a bad poem but as it progressed it just became bitter sweet. It reminds me of a picture of a flower that a drew and on the flower pot i write "The beginning" on the stem I wrote "The Journey" and on the middle of the flower I wrote "The end" and on the petals It said "Love is all you need"
I think that is why this spoke out to me so much. I like how you described all the different flowers and what they represent. Great job.
Now as for the ending, I thought that it was a little bit to realistic but then again too fantasy. The rest of the poem was about bitter sweetness and everything in your mind and it wasn't really like a story like this happened and then this and this, and I feel like thats how the end went.
