I look outside, what do I see
A field of violets smiles at me
While over in the corner there
Two lilacs do their blooms compare.
Hydrangeas all like spreading out
They love the space and so they shout
“Hey, look at me, I’m gussied up
My blossoms fill your largest cup !”
Consider all the dandelions
They are the brighest of all kinds
And when they grow close to the ground
They’re the best cover to be found.
I’d like to think that flowers know
How much we love them as they grow
And keep themselves sweet as they can
In tribute to God’s love of man !
