Veronica Pamoukaghlian: To a Knight in rusty armour

I have
good things for you
if you will grab them

but I won´t give
I´m done with giving

You will have to reach out
come down
and snatch me

My stem is frail,
and broke
as you may be
you have the power

this is a flower
only your hand
can rip
out of the ground

like knights
and swords
frozen in stone

only the prize
is sweeter
