More Flower Orders
They want tulips, roses,
lily of the valley.
They%26#039;re ordering carnations
and daisies, chrysanthemums too.
I gotta get them there-they need them,
to cover up the grief-
they say it%26#039;ll be none too soon.
They want sweet william,
to sweeten the pain
that only yesterday wasn%26#039;t there
They want asters, they want mums-
they want forget-me-nots, and orchids
oh please will it help this despair?
I%26#039;ll get in my truck
and deliver the goods
these flowers to lay on the lawn
and as I do,
I%26#039;ll certainly pray
for a griefless, flowerless dawn.
I hope my poem helps some for the Virginia Tech victims?
I think it%26#039;s beautiful. Thank you.
