When flowers bloomed in my backyard,
I picked a blue one and gave it to the beggar on Koinange street,

When flowers bloomed in my backyard,
I picked a red one and gave it to my lover,
She looked at it for a long time and said,''It is over between us!

I do not want your backyard flowers any more!
I want flowers from your heart!'

Have you read Walt Whitman's Poem?
When Lilacs Last in the Dooryard Bloom'd
Your poem's repetition reminds me of Whitman's.

I like it. Deep meaning with flowers being the physicality of those feelings!
