The flower seed
In the soil feed’
On water and sun
Through the heat
Before shooting
It shoots
With no pretty boots
Just like ordinary weeds
To prepare its thorns
For the protection of its beauty
So like the flower
Sweet heart, go through life’s shower,
Go through life’s heat
Then stand in triumph and shine
Like the perfect sun on the perfect sky..
