Li’l Gladiola: A Haiku
I keep you alive
I water you every day
Li’l gladiola
Go watering can
Gather up all the world’s dust
Some back shelf I pray
little
Pretender, who are you
Why do you wear white at night
Is it true, as they have said
That you should not exist
What trouble brings your heart to act
Where others will not tread
Here upon this storied way
Are you glad to guide me
To keep you pretty
