Ditto to the gang

I still have to sign in under this name.  
Is the poem worthy of the title and any other thougths? 

Salesmanship
 
I saw her on a busy street
with bouquets of daffodils.
The crayon sign said “one dollar.”
Each bundle, wrapped in moistened
paper towels, was held by thin green rubber bands.


At her feet, tethered to a bus stop sign,
a playful puppy wagged its tail
at every passer-by.
 
My flowerbed at home held prize winners
from Michigan Bulb shipped to me
by first class freight,
but, I stood in line like other bus riders.
Need I be more specific?

Have a great day tomorrow

I was thrown by the trip to Michigan.  I wonder if you might have the persona think about the ones from Michigan, "clipped" from his front yard.

Seems like a contest winner to me.

Todd,  

The mention of Michigan Bulb was because it is a nursery.  I didn't mean for it to look like the rider was coming from Michigan, but rather home from work and getting off at the bus stop encountered the situation.  

This just goes to show how important it is for others to see our work and let us know everything we think is obvious is not to the reader.  

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Dennis

I'd buy them too, no matter what I had at home.  Wow!  I'm just a sucker for flowers at good prices. Btw, I did not think about a trip to Michigan.  Just the bulbs, but then I am familiar with Michigan Bulbs.  The image of her is clear.  I stumbled on line 5.  Wonder if you need the word WAS.  Grammarians would say yes, poets might say no.  I like tethered. Great word. 

Next to last line:  like or with?  I don't think you need the question at the end. 
I followed the poem. Thanks for sharing.

Interesting... I saw the persona getting on the bus!  Puppies and flowers... can't go wrong there.  Maybe delete the line  "Need I be more specific?...  try putting the word Nursery in there to clarify... I like citing the source.
I think this poem deserves a stronger title and ending.  "Don't kill Bambi!"  Dewell

I wasn't sidetracked by Michigan Bulb.

I'm with Dewell on a stronger title and ending for this little jewel.

Dewell.  Jewel.

Y'all are leading me down the primrose path.  Or maybe I came from that direction.

Good poem, Ben.  Den.
