John's original poems

<< May 2004 | poems index | clock poem | >>
Flower of the Sun (Jacqueline)even prettier than grandfather/longcase/tallcase clocks!  (June 2004)
Like the yellow petals of a flower,
silky,smooth and scented.
Like the gentle spring rain,
soft and clean.
Like the summer day,
hot and sleepy.
Like the rustling breeze,
cool and soothing.
She is a flower of the sun.
A light in the heavens gave birth to a seed,
which fell onto the crumbling rich soil of earth.
An april shower watered the seed and turned it into a young green shoot.
Tenderly given loving warmth,and shaded by an old worn tree,
she grew and matured,and like a flower of the sun,she is exquisite.
Like the yellow petals of a flower,
silky,smooth and scented.
Like the gentle spring rain,
soft and clean.
Like the summer day,
hot and sleepy.
Like the rustling breeze,
cool and soothing.
She is a flower of the sun.
A flower of the sun.
My beautiful green eyed flower,
of the sun.
