Peace & Thanks
Awaken
i see a flower; not just any flower
this flower is special
it's beginning to grow;
it needs special attention
it's been here for some time
but now it's coming alive
the rays of love have given it energy
the pure rain water from the heavens
have given food for life
now her stems are strong
her petals are opening to show
all the beauty she holds
she is so tender and precious
that the raindrops touch her
with loving passion
the gentle rays of the sun
beam down on her so carefully
not to burn her precious beauty
she smiles at the heavenly skies
with tears of joy and happiness
for she is a beautiful flower
growing wild with love
she's my flower growing wild
-- W. E. Gardner III
