Life

A celebration of the truely wonderfull circle

Life

Life is like a flower

that starts out from a seed

it needs some love to make it grow

and help it to succeed

It becomes a tiny sapling

that plants its little roots

then from the stems

buds soon grow

with leaves and little shoots

As time goes by a petal forms

thats just how nature grows

before too long that little bud

evolves into a rose

A beautiful red flower

sits atop a loving stem

from Spring and all through Summer

till Autum comes and then

pure white frost adorns that once

so firey crimson head

then age begins to take its toll

and soon the Rose is dead

But while the flower was blooming

and nature forms the chain

her seed is being sown

And life begins again

Very simple, yet beautiful. It's beauty is in its simplicity. First poem I've seen you write. Keep writing those short stories though. That's definitely your strength. Thank you for sharing.
