    The Flower's Cousins
    .
    For the lack of a rose can break someones heart
    Too much saffron and even a good king will fart
    .
    The variety on my mind is a most colourful one
    History maligns it while some of us call it fun
    .
    Most of us have seen the flower in the wild
    Bees hum, birds sing, brings a smile to a child
    .
    I have no opinion to share but this simple tale
    No wisdom here and no terrors to make you pale
    .
    The tale begins with Cousin D, who numbs the lies
    Makes you sleep, haunting nightmeres and long cries
    .
    Moving to Cousin O, you feel just like Jesus's son
    Lift the world there is nothing that cannot be done
    .
    And there's Cousin M, using his same old trick
    Reachs in and pulls out whatever makes you tick
    .
    Cousin H is the small fry hiding in the shadow
    Counting time waiting for your guard to be low 
    .
    They all do the same, they stop time and pain
    Calendars serve no need, looking serves no gain
    .
    Loose your clocks or maybe just through them away
    Can't remember when you could stand the light of day
    .
    You don't have care, scratch and see what's beneath
    Nothing matters to you, your time is in lost teeth 
    .
    What is the power and mystery that lies in this crop  
    You will only learn that, when it is time to stop
    .
    Who holds this magic key that unlocks the power
    The synthetic cousins of the colourful flower
    .
    .
    .
    Sorry about my spelling or grammer but 
    If you read the tale above
    You might understand or
    Forgive

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
