Days are Flowers

Days are Flowers

My heart beats are numbered
As each day of my life
The order arranged
The flow of progress
Determined by actions
Actionable thoughts
Questionable intentions
And each bud puts out
And births a day
All my life throughout

A Day is like a flower
Which wakes
Caressed by sunny care
Each petal revels and releases my prayers
A day will not last a week a month or year
It's sun  will set
A day is lifetime of a single flower.

On the floor of earth it blooms
And its sweet fragrances release
Its life and aim
is one day of ours
To bless and please

Carpe Diem whispered the flower
Live for this day this moment this hour
A day is a sweet flower on the tree of life

Live
like a flower
The Day
Replies.

( Bless this Day This sacred Day
   For It's all we can hold and
   scent and love
   And in its loving folds
   We grow to know
   The vineyards of life eternal
   A day is all we can pray for
   To find our way
   Make it the holiest prayer
   On your lips today )
