The Flowering You
By Don Iannone

It's spring,
Imagine you are a flower,
This is your day to bloom,
Show off your new blossoms,
Allow the sunshine to touch
your new stem and leaves,
Smile at the other flowers around you,
Sing!
Flowers have beautiful voices, you know,
Raise your head proudly
and feel the gentle breeze move you
from side to side,
Wallow in those April showers that are
so important to your growth,
And yes, give thanks to
the Great Gardener in the Sky
for giving you exactly what you need.
