The Flower that Never Bloomed - Spring Poem

In March, of 2017, I made a wonderful Sterling Silver Daisy Necklace.  I wrote this poem to go with the necklace. I have four different endings to go with the seasons.

Title: The Flower that Will Never Bloom - Spring

By: Bruce Hackmann 

How do I care for the flower

That will never bloom

Such a daunting task

The love I want to give

Will never feed the roots of the flower

The time I want to spend

Will never reach the leaves of the flower

The care I want to give

Will never touch the stem of the flower … that will never bloom

Such a daunting task

The beauty that I want to see

Will never inspire my eyes

For the flower that will never bloom

Will never be mine

Such a daunting task

Because the garden is growing

The flower is slowly showing

There is optimism with each visit to the garden
