An Ode To Flower Power

Hipsters say that flowers have power
Not the power of force against force
Their vision is of a peaceful world
Where the people make love not war

Softness is flowers secret weapon
It can defeat the hardness of hate
Even as sprouts they can lift the world
Trying to make it a better place

Flowers when you're born and when you die
They come that you might know its true
No matter the reason they were sent
What they really say is 'I love you'
