There was an old cart
That had been abandoned
And a broken chassis
With two imperfect wheels
Was all that remained
Yet leaping up
All around it
Were clusters of flowers
Red
Yellow
Pink
White
Star bursts of colour
New and old
Side by side
Adorning
Each other,
The flowers
Bringing new life
To old bones.
