Wild flower



The past year's snow melts slow among the trees
Showing the spots where the best flowers bloom
Nice shade and lurking moisture with light breeze
Soon green shoots will emerge from winter's gloom

Dead leaves pushed aside by Flower's new leaves
A green bud will emerge after long days
Soon flower, like a hand coming from sleeves,
Will emerge, giving the skies above praise

 Flower grows with the help of rainy skies
 Reaching it's full potential with sun's aid
 Without disparity life would not rise
 Too much of one thing, blooms too soon will fade

In time a canopy grows over head
Blooms fade. Until next spring, plant off to bed
