Withered Lily...



While cleaning the room
She found out something special
A withered lily

Her eyes welled with joy
It was a gift from her love
When he said, "Love you"


As a part of Haiku Challenge

  3. I don't find sadness there because I am sure love has not withered away...because it doesn't..rather it can't.. and lily can't stay forever but one can go back in the moment to enjoy the fragrance..
