As the sun rises with its glorious glow, <br />Flowers awake because they know <br />They will be guided throughout the day <br />If they transfix on every ray. <br /> <br />So they smile and leave all beautified <br />With rainbow colors far and wide. <br />Their delicate pedals gaze at the sky, <br />Tracing the sun’s path as it passes by. <br /> <br />With evening’s approach they close their eyes <br />And patiently await next early rise. <br />Though their time to wilt is soon from birth, <br />Flowers know their place on this earth. <br /> <br />Their radiance gives life to a world often void <br />Of warmth they display since it’s seldom enjoyed. <br />So get acquainted with their momentary glow. <br />Appreciate this earth that flowers so well know.<br /><br />Gregory Huyette<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/flowers-know/
