Lessons: Players of Life

Petals, petals cast their newness aside
velvety visions of beauty glistening with dew

Bright, aromatic tear shaped works of art
each with undefined flaws visible head on

No longer a part, of that which gets noticed
fading without regret, for they danced on air
lived out loud, felt the rain, greeted the sun

Free to be all they were intended to be
wonders, wonders these players of life
