a disturbed vase :)

by chritty - Aries


a Daisy , a Rose and a chrysanthemum were placed together in a crystal vase
 near the window with very little sunshine
they had begun to fight who got to sit closer to the sun
the rose was in disgrace
how could she be placed with two disturbingly plain flowers
did they know who she was
I can’t believe this she told them
why would anyone place you two with me
I mean look at you
I am a rose I am full of beauty
my sweet scent fills the air
I have gorgeous soft petals and a long stem
I come in a variety of different colors and I’m highly demanded
I do not belong in a vase with two such plain flowers
I am a gift of love , the gift of peace after a  fight, or a sixteenth birthday
and what are you I am the best
the daisy frowned she was just as pretty as the rose
proudly she said
well I am grown outside in the warm sunshine
passerby’s stop to take pictures of my bright petals
and bumble bees are drawn to my sweet nectar
little boys pick me for their mothers
and little girls put me in their hair when they play dressup
she smirked at the rose
last but least the Crysanthamum remained silent
well who are you said the rose
she looked at the daisy and the rose and smiled
I am better than all of you
I am the crysanthamum
I have a beautiful and very ordinary flower
I grow in light pastel colors
and my fragrance is the smell of a sweet day
after a summer’s rain
I am gorgeous although I look a bit plain
I am used for weddings and proms
I am sent to the hospital to welcome a new life
a gift to mom
on mother’s day
I am used at funerals and special occasions
so let me just say one thing
it is you two that don’t belong
in this vase with me
the rose turned her head and said why is that chrysanthamum
the crysanthamum stood proud and said
you rose may be the prettiest, and most desired and you daisy may be the sweetest
but you could never be like me
 Im the best because Im all three

Reason for writing:

    My niece she was at my house one day and i sent her outside to pick some flowers for my father and she came back in with a red rose and daisy and a crysanthamum we put them in a crystal vase and they looked odd together :) I just thought it was the cutest
