Watch Me....

Watch me as I emerge shyly,
From in between two baby leaves,
A bud formed newly,
I am hiding within me the secret of life.

Watch me as I unfurl my petals,
From a closed bud,
To a flamboyant bloom,
I am becoming a giver of life.

Watch me as I grow,
From a bee haven,
To an old senescent,
Wise withering flower.

Watch me as I ripe,
Into a sugar filled richness,
From an innocent bud,
A pretty flower, to a juicy fruit....

...becoming a giver of life...
