Would I?

It does make you think about your real selfish nature and also your never ending search of always doing the right thing.

That was beautiful! That's really something to fathom deeply. It's like.....if I like the flower,I will pick it....but if I love the flower, I will let it grow,take care of it.Thanks for sharing!

Thank you. I kind of forgot about this, to be honest.

Nice poem- it somehow reminds me of a haiku. Were you inspired by these?

PashaRu · Post by **PashaRu** » 25 Oct 2016, 16:49

Thanks, I don't know if it was an inspiration per se, but I have written Haiku.

This is a beautiful, heartbreaking poem for it is an all too common question that a great number of people pose within themselves. I love the imagery you have used and it does most certainly cause one to stop and think about the choice they would make, but not just about picking a flower. It causes thoughts of what that flower could represent in someone's own life and the outcome of the decisions they make relies on them alone! Beautiful and deep. Wonderful job, and you said you don't write poetry usually? You should start!

This is great! Short and sweet! It's like a riddle and a philosophical question you are posing? Are you speaking of someone? Or truly nature and what this world is doing to it or what that person has done to you? I liked it. Made me think.

Were suddenly gone
And only you were left
Would I pick you
Or let you grow wild and free?

Great poem. It made me think for a while.

This is short but really quite beautiful. Nice work

I also like how it makes you think, and since it's not extremely specific it makes it easy for the reader to put it in context of his/her own life. Lovely poem.
