Butterflies of Life

Robust bloom thrust up in orange and yellow blast
To show the world a symphony, the ornament is cast
Pleased to greet a feeding friend, striped butterfly is perched
The plant is more than happy to provide the meal that had been searched
The blessing of the nectar, fresh fragrance fills the air
The butterfly brings precious pollen and decorates the air

Much like the flower our life unfurls, revealing good at last
Showing beauty like the sweetest fragrance from the past
So pleased by all our visitors who come for food and rest
We are better when we see them, and with their legacy we’re blessed
There’s love and goodness that’s been cultured just to share
We both receive a blessing giving, living humble and with care
