   there was this one night
   just last week
   when i saw these
   at trader joes

   b. thought they were
   b-o-r-i-n-g
   (being all one colour
   and pink at that)
   and so tried to
   direct my attention
   to some
   brightly coloured
   daisies

   but these
   for some reason
   in their softness and
   strength
   captured my attention
   and so I bought them for
   her

   (and to make b. happy
   we got the
   daisies
   too)

   and much to my surprise
   when we got home
   we found that sometimes
   love and flowers go
   hand and hand
   and there was
   another bouquet
   waiting for
   us
   (because she
   wanted to give flowers
   to her girls).

   isn’t it nice
   when things just
   come together
   like that?
