Who Knew… <br />Date: June 8,2014 <br /> <br />I didn't know a tree would grow <br />From just a little seed <br />I didn't know that it would grow <br />In spite of all the weeds <br />And I didn't know a little snow <br />Could snuff that raging flame <br />I didn't know that it would blow <br />To leave a lasting stain <br />I didn't know the fire's glow <br />Would chill me to the bone <br />I didn't know it's heady glow <br />Would turn my heart to stone <br /> <br />Just...call me slow, but I didn't know <br />The wiles, the ways of man <br />And so it goes, I didn't know <br />What my heart can't understand… <br /> <br />********************************************* <br />Copyright © 2014 Leria Hawkins, All Rights Reserved<br /><br />Leria Hawkins<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/who-knew-28/
