The gerberas you were given
had all wilted within two days.
The thought that counted
didn’t linger beyond its significance,
save to remind you to move on,
that old things are thrown away

sometimes it’s good to have a reminder that it’s time to move on…. even though it can be painful

Well put, David, and yet we find ourselves doting over the flowers we pick, or give to a loved one, sugaring the water, talking to them as we would a sick friend;” hang in there, guys, your colorful daisies compliment our oaken table, & it cheers me to greet you daily.” Yet, your close is truth, unfettered.

It is good to have things that remind us to move on or even that nothing stays the same. Cheers!
