Bed February

By Jocelyn Uasal

Illustration by Allen B. Thangkhiew
For every tulip
that falls to the ground this Fall,
I will think of you.
And for every tulip
that grows next spring,
I will kiss you.
No longer this season
must I search for flowers
to take home and forget.

For every lily
that has ever bloomed,
always summer soaked, I wish
I could write you a poem.
For every lily
that has ever danced,
in the winds beside
so many lovers, I wish,
so badly, to be those lovers.

For every yellow rose
a woman receives next Valentines,
expecting red, I’m sure,
I’ll laugh, knowing
you know my favorite already.
For every yellow rose
that blooms all alone,
I hope it knows, somewhere,
it’s already somebody’s favorite
