Weekly Flowers

Everyday, of every week

He comes and buys the same flowers


Monday it’s marigolds

A piece of gold and ray of sun

To begin the week anew


Tuesday it’s tulips

Red, yellow, white and pink

A rainbow to brighten the day


Wednesday it’s wallflowers

Purple and gold, four petals and all

Weirdly enough, they don’t grow on a wall


Thursday it’s tiger lilies

A fierce name for sure

But beautiful nonetheless


Friday it’s some forget me nots

A pretty little flower, and very blue

I hope he doesn’t forget me too


Saturday it’s snowdrops

Pretty and white

What else is there to say?


And finally on Sunday,

It’s sunflowers all around

Big balls of yellow to brighten up the day


Every day, of every week

Every month of every year

He buys the same seven flowers


One day I simple ask

“Why do you buy the same flowers

Day after day?”


He smiles and says,

“To see you smile of course

Because it always makes your day.”


I blush and smile

And thank him very much

And ask him if he would like to have some lunch


He says yes and off we go

And now along with flowers

We dine everyday
