Flower

This flower is the life of all mortals

It floats in the centre of ones heart

The name Love is writ large on its petals

It lies unopened at the start

Light from other blossoms

Will open this young bud

Darkness from withered buds some

Almost strikes it dead

But no, life is forever

No bud ever withers fully

Dark is never for ever

Light remains potentially

But for you, my dear

No little lights will do

Drink in the light from the Sunflower

Nothing less for you

Into thy blossomed heart

Let the Love of all loves sit

From It may you never part

Till thou merge thyself into it

Other blossoms light

This bud in ones heart

Sun flower alone for thy part
