Water Lily

A lonely water lily

The beauty is heavenly

But where did it come from

Out of the mire of quite a sum.

But in the shadows

Will tightly close

                                       After day two it chose

Its way it will go.

God made this flower peek

Why does it have to sink

With all its beautiful pink

Of it we want to think.

What a lesson for us

This earth is a curse

We can’t get away

No matter what we say.

We are in the mire like the lily

We can still reflect God’s beauty

He will show us our duty

By His power for He is mighty.
