FLOWERS
though they may be
fragile as a butterfly wing
thin enough to let light
pass through
yet they defy their seeming weakness
to bring healing to us
even in our most sorrowful and
dreadful of times.
No matter the gray
that casts shadows
on us or on our hopes
their colors are a burst
of unexpected brightness
for the rooms of our lives
thru which we may pass
from time to time
and in which we may choose
to pause
to be healed
and to give thanks
for the abundance
of Mother Earth
that she should
provide them
of her own
free will
and healing
heart.
