Three flowers on the clip
Pink, blue, and yellow
I think I broke the tip
It's been lying for years all mellow

Nostalgia tinges the petals golden
Heavy with dust and memories
A tiny garden trying to hold them in
I wish they'd flow free

Their scent is long gone
But my gaze is still ever-so fond
Their softening petals hold you
You, my childish love, my old and new
