Don't bring me flowers



Alive, alert, blooming
Stems severed
A painful stab
Wither and die
in a vase for our delight.

Rocks hard, unyielding
weathered, stable
Pass them by -
Miss an internal beauty
unseen, protected, resilient
shattered into a kaleidoscope of living colours.

Shimmering, twinkling crystals.
Fiery red – volatile passion
Deep blue – peace and serenity
Green gives spiritual growth
Pink will ease your pain.

Friend, I give you a bundle of colours
Enshrined in a hard resilient exterior.
Stay firm, resilient and stable.
The winds of change grants a smooth beauty.

Written for a friend who needed upliftment
