Lilies
The flowers I brought you
green tight-lipped lilies
will slowly open over the coming days
Then their unblemished beauty
will be revealed in all its glory
and for a while the flowers
will hold pride of place
and be the centre of attention
when you enter the room
until one day before you know
their heads begin to droop
and the leaves curl
and one by one
the petals start to fall
