Kafetzou, I'm not sure whether these are the right combinations:

Flowers wilt: how do you say it when flowers 'die' ?
Ships perish: and how about when a ship goes to the bottom of the sea?

Hi Chantal

Flowers die, ships sink.

You could also say, "Flowers wilt and die, ships sink."

It's not really dying, it's the process of dying, so then it's wilt I guess?
