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.
