Two Happy Flowers

A story of love in the garden

 

Two Happy Flowers

 

 

There is a happy flower

As proud as he can be

Living In a garden

Beneath the garden tree

Sunny skies of blue

What he loves to see

There is a happy flower

Growing wild and free

 

There is a happy flower

As cute as she can be

Living in a garden

Beneath the garden tree

Birds of every color

What she loves to see

There is a happy flower

Blooming beautifully

 

A funny thing did happen

Deep beneath the ground

In amongst the dirt and worms

Where darkness can be found

Roots began to travel

One set to the west

The other moving eastward

A very lengthy quest

Till one day it happened

The roots began to touch

They really loved the feeling

They loved it oh so much

These roots they grew connected

Locked together tight

Hoping that the other

Wishing that they might

Know the other's feelings

Soon become as one

Living life together

Underneath the sun

They’ll hold on for forever

Or till the end of time

Roots of his and roots of hers

Living intertwined

 

There are two happy flowers

Blooming Beautifully

In two different gardens

Beneath two different trees

Their roots to stay connected

Until eternity

Two happy little flowers

In love as they can be

Most of us take a glance at nature, and see it as nothing more than a beautiful landscape. We "dig" no deeper than that. There is so much we could take from this little story. Some forms of love, for example, cannot be seen. Some forms of love are distant. The rhyming scheme was great! I didn't look for it--I heard it as I read. >>I hate it when all I hear in other poems are those single rhyming words. It takes away from the over-all feeling, but it did not happen here.

As for anything critical, you could have made this a little more "flowery" by throwing in a little more scenery, but truthfully, it doesn't matter. (I just like to throw in something you could use for improvement later on.)

I thoroughly enjoyed it, and I look forward to more! Have a great day.

Thank you, it was something I did for fun to make someone smile. My poetry is usually deeper than this but then again, what can be deeper than roots? Thanks again.
