Flowers and Forever

Time is a growing medium
The soul is the power.
And life could seem tedium though
It’s only the flower.

Some flowers glare a blinding light
And set this world a flare.
Some flowers bloom in dark of night
You’d hardly know were there.

But every flower is a prize
The fruit of time and space
Whatever, large or small in size
It is a given grace.

Enjoy the sands of time in pour
Flowers die in sever
A fain of evermore weather
Vacuous or clever.

And though we hamper the sever
Only the soul is forever.

I just love your thoughts this morning.

Yes ... it IS a given grace.

A flower is a fragile gift
For moments does its grace uplift
But even when the petals fall
It is the beauty we recall
And so a rose never belies
It is a flower that never dies

Lovely poem

I see you have been walking in your wisdom garden and it harvested this poem of blooming
grace.
love the premise of this ... the gift of its message
tis a fragrant bouquet of your insight
a lovely rose of your suppose

and ya know ... where there are flowers ...
there are butterflies

and Liz .. your reply verse is equally as wise and lovely

Love is my religion, I believe in nothing else.
To find that inspiration, live that inner vision.
Love is my religion...I believe in you.

Seymour this is very spiritual at the core. I love this ..."enjoy the sands of time in pour ...flowers die in sever....a fain of evermore weather...vacuous or clever." Well, this is very clever, the entire piece...on the exterior we are all different flowers as there are so many in the fields of nature.... but there is something there inside forever ......GOOD writing!

The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges.
