Lord of Flowers

Lord of flowers, great and small
Display your power over all
With caress of a zestful tale
Dress your fields and forest vale
Swirl your colors all around
Twirl them in a rainbow found
Declare your fragrance in symphony
In the colorful dance of harmony

You created the rose to tickle our nose
But crowned her queen of all flowers seen
To the gentle passer-by
She points to the sky
Her secret scent of love
A gentle kiss from above

You were not crazy
When you made the daisy
For every little child
With all their hopes gone wild
Picks them and says,
“She loves me, she loves me not”
Round and round he goes
And where he stops
Who will know?

The beauty of the hyacinth
You made in a pinch
Filled her with laughter,
Color and joy
And said, “She’s a cinch!”

From the quiet little violet
To the shiest purple iris
Hushed with a deep purple hue
You speak and declare,
 “I will make all things new!”

For every heart burdened with worry
To every soul in a fit of flurry
Watch a flower never toil or spin
For God clothed it with beauty without and within
So will He not then care for you!
