Just Pretty
August 24, 2013
Just a freshly cut rose, not the scent
Nothing more than the glimpse
Of a sunrise.
Only a star to stare at,
As you drift away;
Nice to look at, then forget
With the dawn of a new day,
Or the glow of a new face.
Forgettable, like an ice cream cone
In December.
Unappreciated, like a red cup
Alone in a beige room
Inattentive eyes are glad it’s there to observe,
But nothing more.
