Broken Flower

I saw a trail of blemished petals

as I walked along a cobbled path

it lead me to remainders 

of what seemed to be a broken flower

I carried her to the river

she was weeping 

the tears fell

I didn't know what came over her

until I heard her pain

It's a mythical experience

every time I see you it gets worse

You don't suppose you could wane?

That could mend my fairy-tale. 

I heard a silent whimpering

in the eyes of a tiny being

She was not dead nor living

though it seemed to me

she could feel pain:

Her broken wings lay around her

I picked them up

they were emendable 

I didn't know how to help her

It was in your script: 

It's a mythical experience

every time I see you it gets worse

You don't suppose you could wane?

That could mend my fairy-tale.

Pedals of a flower evetually wither
and fall from its stem, Yet in the
spring they are in bloom and anew
as is this beautifully scripted piece...

I liked how this was a poem with a story to it rather than some rhyming words mashed together. Well done.
