murdered iris buds
© Bozena Helena Mazur-Nowak
wrapped with love
they were nesting tightly
around a mailbox
and were a great pride
in the night,
the hand of a cruel murderer
broke off the tiny buds
robbed them of life
and took all the joy with them
''now murdered iris remain
in the sunshine as a marker''
shiny tear in the eye
large splinter in the heart
endless sorrow
and the question;
why?
