Gratitude in Each Petal
New adventure
Blue, pink, red, mauve,
or yellow
each petal tells a story
it sings if you would lean
and listen
to voice coming from mirrors,
grass,
this flower lives today,
petals have come and gone
for years, decades,
the fragrance
stays fresh, inviting wishes
to come true in embrace,
spirit to run wild,
find new bridges
to cross clouds and the gap
that stays your steps in precipice,
learning to stride above the ocean,
island of turquoise shells,
new blooms to spread,
new dreams
to make heart light
in fairy twinkles.
***
If you were meant for dark path
take a flower
it can be your friend,
guide the way,
you cannot lose your spirit in its fragrance
perfume will bring you home
safe in your trust
grateful to be at peace,
in sunset
of higher way
to be you once again
not shadow,
not a mirror,
your voice echoes the trust
you wished to find
and couldn't reach
under mountain of ashes,
dust.
***
Break free with petals
in your heart
no boundaries to flight,
no limits to compassion
help,
hold hands with scarves
enchanting wishes.
***
Which dream
rings true to you,
whose wish
can you make happen?
***
Would you surrender heart to see
another smile,
laughter that rings
bells in forgotten spirit
of grace and gratitude?
