Bouquet of Flowers This spring I planted two flowers in my garden, Best friends these flowers came to be, One day to my dismay, A weed grew between the two, The weed seemed to be a split of these two friendly flowers, I pulled this weed up, Still it came back. Everytime I pulled, With a vengence it came back. The last time the weed came back, wrapping itself tightly around the flowers. These flowers loved the little weed. I let the weed grow, by the end of the summer I realized that it was not a weed but another flower who with my other flowers brightened up my life with their beauty. Thanks to Ria and Brian for giving me the courage to post this. Brian thanks for your help in reformatting. [This message has been edited by Callie (edited 11-12-2000).] |

Wonderfully written verse, and I agree with Marge true friendship is a beautiful thing. "an afixiation a fix on anything the line of life the limb of a tree the hands of he and the promise that s/he is blessed among women". Patti Smith |

Dear Callie; Your use of analogy is done beautifully to describe the wonder of friendship. Lovely!
