My perfect flowerA Poem by Jack...oh well, it was a slow day
My perfect flower Knocking down this broken fence, I wander through the fields Headed for a line of trees to find what all it yields Foot prints in the fresh plowed earth, my mind so longs to see What the world does have in store, now offered up for me The sun sits shining over head, so bright its warming rays Hanging from a sky of blue, a beacon on display Still I see horizon’s faire of shadows on the wall Wandering, I take a breath and wonder of it all I travel on my journey still when there before my eyes A flower like a special song averts my lonely cries Beautifully it stares at me with hope for all to share Bending down upon my knee, this flower waiting there Many were the days I lived with nothing much so true Until the sun did shine its light and lead me here to you I shall build a wondrous wall to shelter you from harm Tend you now and everyday, protect you from the storm Nourish you and keep you safe for this eternity So I may keep forever more this joy you bring to me Never more shall this man roam beyond this valley view For I accept you as my own, my perfect flower, you © 2013 Jack...Author's Note
