Flowering Plant

Prompt: "The Flowering Plant is a metaphor easily observed for the whole of life. Everything is contained within the bud which holds all the promise: but the glory of the open flower is beyond anticipation." Linda Funk

Plants and flowers are beautiful. Isn't it nice when they open up and let the sunlight in? It is like a whole new world for them and applies to people as well. It is like hope, peace, promise and love along with new dreams and journeys to seek and find.

Some buds close up and reopen later. We sometimes do that in life. We calm up and disappear into our inner selves but when we are happy and want to go forward, we do that, too. Seeing flowers makes you smile. They are a thing of beauty and spring of hope after a long winter. The flowers are a symbol of a beautiful summer ahead along with our hopes and dreams. We do need dreams. Blossoming flowers, I welcome you. My life can and will be good as well as productive.
