Lollipop Bouquet

An office desk with a calendar, some papers, a water flask, and a small brown pot holding lollipops arranged to look like a bouquet of flowers.
My office desk.

I went to the bank yesterday.
Saw a big bucket of lollipops.
Asked the teller if I could have one.
He said take as much as you like.

There seemed to be a few options.
I couldn't choose.
So I asked if I could take one of each flavor.
Again, he said take as much as you like.

So I started taking one of each flavor.
My hand was getting full.
But I could still see some flavors I didn't have.
But I already had 11 lollipops.

So I decided to stop there.
I went back to my office.
I was about to stash the sweets in my drawer when I noticed the little pot I use as a paper weight.

Just sitting there.
Empty.

So now I have a lollipop bouquet.
I wonder what the flavors taste like.
But I won't be finding out anytime soon.

Eat the sweets.
Have a bouquet.

I'd rather have the bouquet.
