OktoberKid's latest poem

[Lyric]

Flowers

Flowers, they remind
me of fireworks. Flowers smell
good. They really are beautiful,
to look at them. They are the things
of my dreams. I have a bed
made of flowers.

I have a bed made of flowers.

That kid just might be pretty good at this someday.

1. We have a flower bed in our front yard.

But I wouldn't sleep there.
Sorry, couldn't resist.

Yes, he shows great promise.
I know you're proud.

2. Oh gods. Flowerbeds.

I have been dying to put in flower beds for years. I even squared-off and dug up the areas, once, and then we never got around to actually planting the darned things.

I really need to do that this spring. I'm not looking to plant bulbs, so spring planting should be okay.

And thank you. I'm proud of him every day.

...a bed made of flowers. Very nice.

Send him hugs from me and Betaben, if you would.

4. You got it.

He's happy because we're having cheeseburgers for dinner tonight. I haven't the heart to tell him about the salad greens, lol.

Edit: Check your PMs, dear.
