FLOWERS? FLOWERS FOR ME?
(Chapter 1)

Flowers for me dearest lady?

For me who has shunned your love,
your looks, your gentle touch?
Better leave those flowers, lady,
lying on a grave out there
than in my hands that do not care,
and that have never touched your skin.
Or is it that you don’t seem
to adore these precious flowers
and to while away the hours
you now have brought them to me?

    You should be so lucky F. I’ve often bought flowers for a lady, but no lady has ever bought flowers for me 🙂

      2. Yes, I understand, I used to hear it plenty from the North Americans as well Malc as well as the slight variation, «I should be so lucky» usually said by older Jews in Miami Beach. 😊
