Thanks for discovering this lost gem and re-offering to us, it's simply marvelous! Every line touches the heart.10/10. Quite agree with the comments of Thomas A Robinson, Sandra Feldman, Lyn Paul, Lucifera Santez, Kavya, Loraine Colon and Davis Wood.
nature indeed hs been taken for gra nted by us....pure human selfishness should b curbed by us.....good write..
I also believe, the flowers look beautiful when they stay with their mother i.e plant.Your writes are fabulous Val.You know I adore them.
I remember this poem and commenting on it. The comment verbatim escapes me, but in essence it was good with a fine message and remains thus.
a sign of a gentle heart...this taking care of nature in this delicate manner...i hope you must have found BONDING on my page similar to this one of yours! beautiful work!
Preserve the joy that Nature gives Just feast your eyes as Beauty, lives This is what I think you so beautifully said, gave me a deep feeling of peace and joy. A spiritual union with Nature, felt human again, thank you
wat a noble thought.....unfortunately not all think this way and ultimately the beautiful flowers get plucked to be decorated on their own tables
Your poems of nature are well stated and very well understood, just returned from a two week deck building adventure at my sons house to find our flower garden ravished by varmints. Pray do not eat my daffodils? ? ? ?
Enjoyed this so much. Glad you re-submitted it. It's not a poem you want to lose.
Beautiful poem about nature and its beauty. See and enjoy. I would have missed a great one if you did not resubmit. Thank you.
Someone may have plucked it and run off with it Val! Don't worry this one looks well planted and your sure to get good comments too.
oh! how wonderful, your poetry always flow like a peaceful breeze, just beautiful ma'am a well crafted piece
The dissappearing poem became a flower and was plucked from your collection
This is oh so beautiful Valerie. I love flowers but they are really beautiful when they are not picked. There is something about them as they flow back and forth with the wind as the sun shines brightly upon them. Enjoyed.
mother earths beauty is not apreciated by all unfortunately but your poem most certainly is.
Makes me want to grow some flowers for sure, well done and well put. Keep up the good work!
a beautiful thought expressed in astonishing simplicity!
This is an amazing poem. I love it and conveys a lot of meaning.
