Beauty

Lyrics skip laughter along lines about love.
And purple patient highlights light the night skies.
The Lilly lives without the plow.
Its supposed to make you wonder, how?
It dies when you figure it out.

Must be the untamed "Beauty" of the Lily that helps it thrive "without the plow"? Cultivation of love can be as sad and tricky. Might fizzle out before one understands the "how". Profound thoughts accompany this write. Best wishes! Mikki
