My words aren’t so great.

My fashion’s not so chic.

The art I create
Makes other’s sore
In the brain.

I can’t cook,
Or see,
I can’t bake
Or navigate the sea.

But I can watch
I can listen.

I can give you an image.
I can make your eyes leak.

With my silent wallflowers,
I can draw a story
From watching you eat.

I’ve tried to inspire,
Sometimes I make
A crumble instead.

My best interest
Isn’t a talented one.

But I can appreciate
And love what’s been done for me.

And, oh,
Do I appreciate you.

You and your wallflowers too.
