Flower


I really love flowers. They are so beautiful! So striking and simple, but also complex. So fragile and dignified. They are so wonderful. I bet you can guess what this next poem is about.... yep, flowers.


The envy of the shooting star,
The tender gift of love,
A miracle is what you are,
A gift from Him above.

Behold the face of beauty, shy,
And bless us with your grace,
Take peek upon the wondrous sky,
With petals white as lace.

With simple charm and dignity,
Your presence bids me peace,
It lulls me to serenity,
Quick calm and full release.

You steal my breath and captivate,
I love you like a friend,
A better life you help create,
Together to the end.

With mystery and strength untold,
Cast out my fear within,
Your power is worth more than gold,
Dispel my selfish sin.

Because of you I know He lives,
The one my soul longs for,
This precious glimpse to me He gives,
A peak through heaven’s door.
