Flowers From The Woods

Flowers from the woods feel love and gratitude for the earth.

            Flowers from the woods are born in freedom and know their worth.

Their roots are deeper within the ground and less easily fooled or swayed.

            They bloom in oneness.  Befriend the grass.  They feel love for every blade.

Flowers from the woods have faith in God to fulfill their needs.

            Flowers from the woods show off their beauty through brush and weeds.

Their stems are stronger at their core and less easily snapped or bent.

            They bloom in oneness.  Befriend the wind, and they haven’t lost their scent.

Flowers from the woods feel love and gratitude for the earth.

            Flowers from the woods are raised in freedom and know their worth.
