~the wonder of life~

does a new born flower bud wonder as it looks

around…'will i grow to be as radiant as that golden

sunflower that has all of the sun’s attention and

the clouds hovering o’er, fawning of its beauty'

so too, i ask, when a crimson cardinal perches on

a large arbor oak’s limb ...is the tree filled with pride,

that this winged angel visits with its glorious red

plume vest, singing to greet the morning's ethereal

horizon

little do we know of this, for it is considered as

a human condition only, but in that, i believe love

is the intrinsic fiber of all, then it is surely shallow

of our species to think otherwise of the flower,

the cardinal and the tree
