Being.
When I, on looking closer at
sun-beaming roses see
how sweetly they all meet
some Holy Decree of quietly
being themselves and
letting me just be me, I find
something vital drops
into my beating heart, like
a phial of truth newly bottled.
Proverbial coating begins to
slide with knife-like
precision and slits the plush
of pleached thought, mind
open I catch sight
of flora's pure motive much
clearer and now know
why a rose desires to be
naught but a beautiful rose.
So how I wish to be
no more than me.

Dear Laura - your comments are always so generous and show your warm heart - many loads of thanks for your kind support ................ so pleased you enjoyed the read.
Wouldn't it be such a wonderful world if we all were content with the recognition of the beautiful thing we are and could see the beautiful thing in all that surrounds us.
Maybe there would be so much more respect for our planet and all living things.
Yes what a difference to world conditions if we were content with just being ourselves -- your wise comment helps readers see the way to go forward is to respect all living things........... thanks so much for your in-put dear D.A.
Maybe we can all be ourselves, and just like a rose, exude our talents for all to see.
