Three red tulip blossoms
Return each spring
And we greet each other silently
As we have done for 30 years.
***
Petals drop
Stems dry
The tulip withdraws within itself
To prepare for reawakening
At its prescribed time.
Peace follows solitude
Three red tulip blossoms
Return each spring
And we greet each other silently
As we have done for 30 years.
***
Petals drop
Stems dry
The tulip withdraws within itself
To prepare for reawakening
At its prescribed time.
