Flowers Anonymous in acrylic by AVR 2015.  

Lady Gertrude Stein was correct after all;

You can't define a flower but by itself;

Move over Linnaeus, Darwin, Mendel;

Science is gathering dust in the shelf.  

Wonder the DNA, the code of heredity;

Prosaic, assuming, devoid of caress.

Neither seen nor measured nor certain

To judge the beauty of a patch of roses.

Why, a flowering weed by the roadside,

Or some lowly vine clinging in the open –

For they mask the unseen to be seen

As a whole new world of a Lost Garden.
