To a Particular Woman
Walking, I notice the flowers
how they look or appear;
if colourful they form a face
of a loved one, a woman.
Flowers can brighten the day.
They give us hope on our journey.
They are Nature’s mirror of
our true selves, the beauty inside.
When I walk past, the colour
comforts me as if they are you.
I store the flowers in my mind
and offer them to you with love.
