Winter soars away
On wings of butterflies.
Poppies and phlox burst with glory
As bees pursue their pollen.
With honey found among the flowers
When first love burst into bloom.

Sorry sweet cat,
just too little.
You were found in a cardboard box,
twined with your sister and brother;
taken too soon from your mother,
you tried to get out with loud knocks.
Twined with your sister and brother,
in a box taped shut just like locks;
someone heard sad meows by the rocks,
taken too soon from your mother.
Sorry sweet cat,
twined with your sister and brother;
named you my favorite bloom- Phlox,
taken too soon from your mother;
just too little.
Just too little,
sorry sweet cat.

Phlox by Night
God made wonderful world for us so great
But me about flowers He never did educate
If someone should have case of pneumonia
Would he soon be overcome by a begonia?
If you have experienced many hard knocks
Give them pretty petunias with some phlox
Which is what shepherds watched by night
While on bright beach we were flying a kite.
It is always night that draws nigh and near
And of course into darkness does disappear
Start hearing Jesus tell several great stories
Tomorrow we will have many morning glories.
God straightened out Shallotte traffic for me
And am now full of fun and found much glee
When my work is all over and finally done
Thank Holy Ghost, God and Jesus his Son.
