the rose
or the sunflower

you try to decide

the sunflower is weeping
the rose is gleaming

which to choose

the rose has fully bloomed
the sunflower is doomed

you can water it you thought

the dying one
the harmful one

the rose is what you chose
but soon the sunflower arose

for the sunflower was dying because of you
because you chose wrong it grew

when you saw that it had rised
you couldn't believe your eyes

another one had taken the flower
this one had more power

this one cared for it

as you looked at the dying rose
you regret what you chose

as the sun went down
he fell asleep
waking up he knows down deep
which to choose
