Beautiful flower…
Why have you been closed so long?
Your petals stay shut
Long after the sun has gone.
No one sees your glory
On those dark and windy days.
So why not open up a bit
Let me see you smile though the wintry haze.
Light is all around you
Just now soak it up and see.
Maybe unfurl a petal
Go on, be brave for you and me.
The dark skies are now over.
There’s blue sky overhead.
You can let your beauty shine.
Wake up from your sleepy flower bed!
