3404 - Where have all the flower shops gone?

A rainy day and then some here in Man-
chester, forget the cliches, this was bad
Saturday Christmas shoppers going on
Determined, hoods up, umbrellas deployed
Stallholders keeping it going, afraid
That the downpour might dampen their profits
No need to worry, he must be obeyed
The God of Santa, keeping up spirits
I searched in vain in the rain, coat so wet
For a flower shop, where have they all gone?
Back home, mission impossible indeed
Couldn't arrange online either, seems it's
Gonna be last-minute ordering to send
A bouquet to Doreen's funeral (so sad)
