A Flower
( Writen May 13, 2005)
By Joseph Vaillancourt

A flower has a great power.
Yet she is so small!
However, she heeds the call
And because she stands so tall
She helps to heal us in the fallen.
And when we’ve fallen
She can help us men to stand

What is it that our great creator
Would give a flower; so small, so much power?
That her beauty would shine
And emerge to encourage us in our darkest hour?

What is the power of a flower?
This answer so very, very simple:

A flower gives ever-so-easily and
She shines her beauty like a star.
She is a guide for this entire world to see
And her true beauty is a weapon to encourage
From this she gives courage for us to stand tall.
After all she is strong tower which has the power to empower.

Our Creator does give much power to small things, like the flower, as you observe. It reminds us to be humble always.

Joseph, I'm so sorry, but your entry had to be disqualified because it was written previously. One of the rules of the Challenge is that all entries must be written during the week after the topic is announced. This is why it is called a "Challenge" and not a "contest." I wanted to make sure I let you know before you entered the next Challenge - also, make sure you leave your name out of the submission box area when you enter - as all entries are meant to be anonymous. With love, Deb (Challenge Coordinator)
