Eve Roper Poet Couplet

Like a Flower

" Be like a flower ... gentle, quiet and humble."
                                                   Quote _ Constance La France

A flower ... gentle, quiet, and humble
To have strength to be humble then stumble.

To have glory, learn deep humility,
Disburse plights for healing tranquility!

We can learn from an opening flower,
Life challenges from a higher power.

Humility says we learn from others
Ongoing growth of wisdom, my brothers.

Humble flowers add so much to our world
They feed bees and others with wings that furled.
