Funny thing about flowers
and a woman’s wanting

What a thing to admire —                dash not needed, the pause only separates from next line which actually detracts
this reception of sacrificed bloom
a temporary wonder of sight and smell

then rot.                 I think you could cut this.  implied by the surrounding lines

She only offers lust when they are pretty and plucked.
Dropped in a vase perfectly cut.
It seems she has little use             But
for them once wilted.

And Yet this is a symbol of my love.
Hello,
Welcome back.  Very nice piece.  Made some suggestions above.  I would also consider switching S1 with S2
thanks,
bryn
