One Tiny Bloom

~~~

Of all the sweet and all the scent

held in one tiny bloom

Of all the spring and all the rain

scented with soft perfume

 

In graceful dance upon a breeze

painted of summer’s hue

Hiding her head, so quietly,

as autumn’s chill comes due

 

In ivory white the meadow lies

a snowy winter quilt

Within a dream of summer days

she has no fear to wilt

 

For she can hear the angels sing

of sunbeams found in gold

Beyond the glass of ice and snow

beauty softly unfolds

 

As she blossoms brilliant and bright

through winter woes below

she holds a gift we know as hope

that keeps her heart aglow

 

And with a breath of scented rain

and hope gently in flight

her petals fly with grace and ease

upon a breeze of light

 

And all the chill of icy paths

and snowy frozen gloom

are not a match for all the strength

held in one tiny bloom

The love in your words, the way you express them are beautiful and honestly, so filled with love, each and every line/word. A beautiful tribute to Hannah.
