A flower lifts its face to the sun

Posted on by

A flower lifts its face to the sun

And opens up to warmth

It drinks in the flow of the rain

And grows as it stretches forth

The flower never looks behind

To the shadow it will cast

So, we should always look ahead

And not dwell in the time that past
