The Prettiest Girl (Flower) Around

My poem I wrote for literature class. It was kinda funny though, cause I started out writing about flowers then it kept changing on me to girls :)



The Prettiest Girl (Flower) Around 


I see you there in glory shining bright,
Following the sun and its path of light.
Standing tall above all others in the field,
You grow, conquer, and do not yield.

The little birds take great delight
in playing round you, from day to night.
With your petals of love that always sheen
how very easily you are seen.

But there is more to you than first sight,
More than beauty and grander to delight.
Every beautiful aspect that appears,
Gives praise to the Father dear.

He made you a part of creation,
and you praise him in glorious celebration!
The beauty that within you is expressed,
Gives testimony to his greatness.

Beautiful flower, how I long to be like you!
Glorifying God in all I do.
Following the Son and His path of light,
to worship Him in His glory shining bright.

I can learn from you, my friend,
with every breath, praise to God, I might send.
With all of his creation telling the story,
Might I, with you, proclaim His glory.
