iFlower

i think of myself as a daisy
when the sun comes out
i’m ready to play

my boyfriend used to say
i was his little english rose
now he says i’m a snap dragon
i tell him it’s hormonal
but he’s getting on my nerves a bit
time to say
forget-me-not

mum says i’m an elegant lily
so silly
obviously not seen me
totally out of it

to my flatmate i’m like a daffodil
with its happy yellow head
bobbing about in a gentle breeze
i think she’s after borrowing
that sexy tiny dress
i got from miss selfridges

my boss says i’ve tumble weed
blowing about inside my head

i’ve been honeysuckling
around this guy i fancy
who said i was like his venus
which is kinda sweet
to be someone’s love goddess
adored and protected
like a rare and precious orchid
but i couldn’t understand
why he was ignoring my signals
until i discovered
he was thinking fly trap
with me hunting for fresh meat
