The Web Poetry Corner - Roy Wayne Crouch - The Desert Rose

The Desert Rose

by

Roy Wayne Crouch

I sent to you a flower,
From the depths of my soul,
To set upon your table,
To the garbage it did go.

Covered at a landfill,
My spirit sends me chills,
The color was so beautiful,
Not worthy of this deal.

How did I find out?
I didn't watch your place,
I passed you on a corner,
And saw it on your face.

A flower bring you joy,
The smell is so sweet,
Hearts are not for breaking
Or trodding under feet.

Lord please forgive me,
I don't believe they know,
The flower that I gave her,
Was The Desert Rose.
