I wove garlands
of fictions
fancies, fantasies
perfumed fragrances
that gave delight
keeping me happy
and cosy.
I did not want grim reality
its stark, naked truths
staring me in the face.
My garland is my bower
it's a lovely purple and green.
All the same, you have yours too
Only, maybe your garland is blue.

the last four lines redeem the poem, making it special, and are almost enough by themselves.
