A Flower

A flower in the garden
Different from the rest,

Color,
Form,
Smell,
Looks like it's the best.

None of the others
Look like this one,

Very odd,
Too peculiar,
Pick it up so there's none.

The flower in the garden
Now is no more,

She was too perfect,
Stood out,
Had the loudest roar.

They envied her beauty,
Her charm,
Her appeal,

Now she had faded
Leaving trails that she's real.

The flowers in the garden
Resemble one another,

Where's the other one?
Promise I won't bother.
