The Florist
The florist has no garden of rosesNo springtime smiles from newborn daffodilsNo orchids in the window reaching for the sunThe florist couldn't save a single oneThe florist comes from work each eveningTo her empty house holding an empty vaseShe fills it full of water and then she starts to cry outWhy do flowers have to dieSo I gave a flower to the florist todayCause she always has to give her flowers awayShe dreams of dandelion jewelryWhy's it so hard for something that she wants to growTulip is the name of her tired tabby catPawing at the goldfish bowlSo I gave a flower to the florist todayCause all she always has to give her flowers awayForgotten gardenRun dry of waterThere is still a chance to save this one
