Forget-Me-Nots

Minuscule seeds lay in my palm 
A promise of beauty to come
Tiniest seedlings quickly emerge
Encouraged by raindrops and sun
Teeniest blue flowers suddenly appear
Their sweet smiley faces are so full of fun

I love forget-me-nots. They were abundant in the springtime garden of my grandmother. Thank you for reminding me of her today and for the walk in your garden! Congratulations on your winning poem. Good luck in the contest! Happy Easter dear friend.
