Aesthetics

Aesthetics

Fresh cut flowers on the windowsill

Sun streams in, the room is set

Only, we are pacing the aisles of the megastore

Searching for happiness stacked on a shelf

Another Saturday sacrificed

New garden to seed, room to redecorate

All wilted by next season’s palette

Kingdoms built today by a life compromised

Just a click or tap away

Always though, step too far

Made to break; never to last

Why is the question for the day

Back to the flowers

Sometimes sticks will do

Add a touch of imagination

And you may find…where beauty resides
