Day Lilies were a favorite,

I planted a few just for her.

~ 

~

My Burgundy ones are in full bloom,

Whispering to me each morning.

~

~ 

Flowers shaped like vessels can be filled with many thoughts,

These are filled with my fond memories.

~

Of a very special lady,

 Mom.

~

Dropped like a gift,

A seed from another.

~

Slowly you grow, 

Golden petals long and slim.

~

~

Your elegant, but strong leaves,

Swaying in the breeze.

~

~

You grace us with your presence,

As you lift to face the sun.

~

Lying in your center,

Is the heart of your being.

~

~

Growing new seeds,

To feed those in need.

~

~

A seed is taken, a seed is eaten,

A seed is dropped, which begins to grow.

 ~

To again,

Feed those who happen by.
