A flower is elegant
in its simplicity
knowing when to bloom
living in authenticity
Standing alone
or in a garden
living in the moment
its spirit not hardened
Absorbing the sun
taking water from the rain
feeding a bird or bee
much to be gained
Seeing the universe
in such a small space
coating its surroundings with beauty
with simple grace
The petals fall
on to the next place
still spreading its spirit
nothing goes to waste
Meditation over
radiating smile from joy within
sweet beauty and fragrance
from a flower is a win
