New Growth

Every morning a profusion

of flowers waits

just outside my door

 

petunias, mums

and marigolds

nod their tiny heads

 

I always feel as if

I have interrupted

a conversation

 

putting my best

foot forward

I smile

and not back

just in case anybody

is watching

 

at days end

I sense their weariness

as they must mine

 

and we both

receive blessings

as I discover new growth

and they in turn

remind me of my own

 

isn't it amazing

how the simpler

things in life

give us pleasure

 

and isn't it amazing

how we finally know
