Flowers Through the Years
My dear
Love is a flower in this world
To grow the flowers bright
We’ll bear the mud, our hearts unfold
Red blessings spread across the field
Where our hearts may yield
Let breezes sing their tune
Let time bring forth new shoots
My dear
Romance is a flower in our world
To bloom in bright array
We’ll clear the dirt away
Some hold dust but paint dawn’s glowing blaze
Shared wrinkles crown our precious days
I hold your hand in mine
Through the years I plant sweet vines
Beneath our humble lamps that shine
With time our true hearts align
Clouds rise high; rains fall down
No need to rush or frown
The patient find the fairy crown
Oh, time
You hold a grace sublime
To see flowers bloom and climb
Our path has rough design
Life rewards each earnest, true hour
Sow in spring; harvest with delight
Amid the crowd we stray
Through the years we bloom always
Watch flowers come and go
Greet silver hair with calm grace
Trees stand tall; we grow and rise
We ripen soft and slow
May flowers bless our days below
