Oh to be like…
A floating Autumn leaf…
Windswept with the breeze,
Gliding gracefully through the world.
A lacy wintry snowflake…
Softly caressing,
Touching everything with enchantment.
A Spring blossom…
Hued in pastels,
Delighting the eyes in love.
A cool Summer stream…
Gently babbling,
Quenching thirsts and refreshing souls.
Oh yes! I hope…
To whisper words of comfort,
So others might hear.
To touch with hands of healing,
So others might feel.
To imbue the colors of this world,
So others may see.
To provide water for the thirsty,
So others can taste.
But may I always be…
A gentle fragrance, an enticing aroma,
Of all the seasons and senses wrapped into one.
