Hothouse Plant.

Goldfinch60



The heat is so welcoming to her,

She calls herself a hothouse plant

Which has become so beautiful,

So beautiful over the years.

The edges are curling she says,

As the days in her life increase,

But when I see her, I see her blooms,

And those blooms are full of colour.

    Good write Gold.
    Me singing's frayed a bit too, curling at the edges!

    • Goldfinch60

      It might be curling but with practice t will curl in the right direction.

      Life is there to be lived for those who appreciate the beauty that is in the life around them. Accepting what the fine weather brings to our door upon an unexpected breeze is accepting a gift from life itself.

        ANGELA HERE - GOOD MORNING UNCLE ANDY - The Kings Singers - Impeccable Acapello - great way to start the Weekend. We all know about LOVE but we all willingly fall into it ! The Lyrics made me CRY !

        Some say LOVE is like - A River - A Hunger - A Flower
        The Heart afraid of Breaking - Dream afraid of Waking
        A Soul afraid of Dying - A Road too Long ................... !
        The seed thats planted in the Summer beomes a ROSE.

        Brian & I knew some of this but i neve deterred US frorm LOVE !

        Love the POEM

        Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
        Love Angela & Brian 💛💛💛💛💛

          We have the means to create beauty even when it is out of season, so why can't we create for ourselves all the time - specially with all the issues going around now a days

          • Goldfinch60

            So true Suresh, beauty is there, all we need to do is be aware of it.
