Dead Flower

Shrivled up, dead and brown.
Shrinked up
Resembeling a supersized raisin.
Shiny from the rain
A few in the bunch still survived
The green stems stand tall
swaying in the wind, holding their limp, lifeless bud.

This poem brings to mind attempts to put hope in seemingly hopeless situations. It starts off depressing and full of dread and moves on to a sense of mourning and then moves on.
