where do all the dead flowers go?
where does all the melted snow flow?
where does the sky define a crow?
i don't know.

Um... My guess would be..

To dead flower heaven...
South...
Where ever the crow flies...

Just my guesses, of course...

It's the questions that have no answers that give life it's little mysteries!
       This is food for thought, and ver enjoyable!!

Hi bsuirrel,

So nice to see you, well the flowers fade in to a soul needing to remember, melting snow quenches a dry mouth wanting to tell his story, when the crow is seen by the naked eye and taken in as natures creation it is only then defined, I really don't know either but this is what my mind says today tomorrow it will change as so will I, so much enjoyed your poem.

Love, Cerenity

well 'twould only be guesses but

in my memory lay the flowers
vased and dried
deadened by time
in the new green shoots
the snow melts
life into the dead
the sky need not define
a crow...
they are equally as free

but you could just as well say
I don't know either

great read

You know, flowers don't die, they just fade away (heehee) I enjoyed the questions and I think most everyone would have a different answer for ya. I'm obviously no help at all.   -SEA
