To My Love

Today I found a flower, its tiny yellow petals adorned like a miniature crown on a green bulbous frame. When I saw its tired, ugly, scarred flesh I thought of your face, my love, and smiled. For I, the delicate flower, grew ever lovelier in your succulent soil of wealth and adoration. Now, I have been blown on a warm wind to this distant land, to adorn it with my gentle beauty.
