The Power of a Flower

THE POWER OF A FLOWER Time for tea, early afternoon, Pretty flowers on the cup. Does it taste any better, Will it life us up? Perhaps if the cup were plain, It would taste just as good. Flowers add beauty, As we know it should. Roses for the lady, Makes any day so grand. Gorgeous in a vase, Special in her hand. The wedding hall so fine, Flowers every where. Festive love and beauty, They show that people care. The garden home so new, This life we now do share. Spreading love and happiness, Flowers add a special flair. A new-born cries, A mother smiles. Flowers brighten the room, For a special child. The years just seem to fly, Children here and gone. Celebrations blessed with color, Flowers made it a home. Now the bugle blows Taps, Another patriot gone. Flowers cover his grave, Lord, please welcome him home. RAYMOND V. MORGAN
