Ornamental Witness
Wondrous family bond’s tenacity
Bracing love-anchored parental duty
There children enjoy great security…
Sweet home I witness as hedge of beauty.
Lovers’ lane welcomes couple’s engagement
Delighting in grand magical moment
Near water garden brings me fulfillment
Since I’m park showcasing light’s amazement.
Being a steadfast gracious frontal fence
Of a clinic for wellness prevalence
I’m exposed to life and faith’s worth-essence…
Vital I learned is vibrant existence.*
With my blessed roles as ornamental plant
I, blossom, praising the Lord… jubilant!
*James 4:14 Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
