As a delicate flower,
you bring beauty to a barren garden
with your wondrous smile.
Despite the harsh winds of Life,
you are firmly planted in God's hands
and stand upright in strength.
Your tenderness will always be evident;
avoid those who would look
to trample you under foot.
Let Jehovah's spiritual principles
blossom fully in your life -
Be a blessing to others
and reflect the brillance of His Light.

It a blessing to read in strength of faith and love. There are times we do feel trample sometimes it takes a poem like this to remind us. That we are not alone.That God does hold us in his hands. This is wrote from a great faith in God

Beautiful use of both imagery and allegory. This poem is incredibly simple, but lends iteself to be read and re read, each time with a new, slightly more grand applicable allegory. My favourite lines are 6 and 7, they work wonderfully together! What wonderful juxtaposition, to stand in strength, but to have a tenderness that "will always be evident".

lovely poem, Joe, soft and elegant, with an uplifting and positive image, well done and thank you for sharing your wonderful giftedness.
blessings and best wishes,

Lovely
Very nice flow here. This is such a descriptive write, you did a great job with it. I would have to say
"As a delicate flower,
you bring beauty to a barren garden.."
These are my favorite lines.
Thanks for painting a splendid picture in my mind. ~han18 -
