Hidden in a Sonnet

lilies that fester
smell far worse
than weeds

    Actually

    Your poem is akin to a Haiku the more that I look at it.

    Getting closer than those before you

    but still not a Haiku.
    Perhaps

    "their excellence
    the summer's flow'r
    is to the summer sweet"

    is the best I can get from that sonnet.

    Three lines, but the task is difficult.
