Twelve


In his moments of affection
he brings her flowers from the wholesale market
a dozen of red roses she loves
and then gives her one at a time,
throughout the night.

He wonders between those flowers
how much each costed him
so he extracts the worth of love
almost like his daily wages.

She smiles 12 times in such nights.
