I put the flowers
in the vase yesterday.
They were lilies,
not that you'd notice anyway.
But I thought it important
to add life to the room
and let the smell permeate
from a bouquet in full bloom.

My To Be Read List
I have been taking some time away from writing. I haven't forgotten about Vocal, the truth is I just have been too busy pursuing other things to write online and honestly, my little family and I just had a really hard month between the flu and a weird eye infection/cold circulating our house. I'm currently sipping some warm peppermint tea because my throat is sore.

This poem manages to pack a punch in so few words! It reminds me of the song 'Tolerate It' by Taylor Swift!
So little said but so much expressed! I loved this. A snapshot of a relationship courtesy of lilies. Btw, I'd notice. Lilies pong!
