Bouquet in a chair

Bouquet in a chair- Pierre-August Renoir

by Nikki

Left behind after a show:

Simple white flowers

Waiting on a chair.

Once held by a woman,
On a date with her beau,
Soon forgotten, the flowers were left there.



They’ll be remembered again,
At closing time,
When the cleaning staff empties the room.



But until then, they’re forgotten,
The simple white flowers,
Become a dying bloom.
