Cactus On a Big Boulder

There is something I just did realize
Flower seeds have different shape and size
Which were made by God to accommodate
All their abilities along with each trait.

A cactus can make water out of oxygen
When mixed with moisture again and again
End result will be flower for you to choose
Which itself always continually renews.

Maybe it might be to my surprise
After a while I finally did realize
Beauty is in each eye of the beholder
That may be growing on a big boulder.
