flowers of romance

flowers #2 by ib, SibLINGSHOT ON THE BLEACHERS.
I originally photographed these flowers in front of a rain swept window about ten years ago, when my son's mother was pregnant with him. The image is one of a series of four.

Now in the summer / I could be happy or in distress /
Depending on the company / On the veranda /
Talk of the future or reminisce / Behind the dialogue /
We're in a mess /
Whatever I intended / I sent you flowers /
You wanted chocolates instead / The flowers of romance /
The flowers of romance /
I've got binoculars / On top of boxhill / I could be Nero /
Fly the eagle / Start all over again /
I can't depend on these so-called friends /
It's a pity you need to bend /
I'll take the furniture / Start all over again
