"A FLOWER STORY FOR EVERYONE!"
"STOP AND SMELL THE ROSES!

This is a poem about flowers, roses, and you all as you tread your roads of life of unicorns, & flowers.
I always stop and smell the roses!
When I write
I write about events and what is in sight,
Or what is out of sight,
When I write
It is not all about me,
Cause I am out of sight!
Busy as a bee
That smells the flowers and
Love the ocean sand

As one begins life’s journey
At birth
No one knows their worth
As they move onto life’s path
Of ups and downs,
And clowns,
And clouds of rain,
But not pain.
Smell the roses,
As you walk along your journey in time,
As this helps you stay sublime
To smell the roses

Of how you disclose of roses
Of all the colors of the rainbow
Of the seeds you sow in time,
To hangout a rose pedal over the rainbow,
To live again, to express your inner being,
Of how you walk and talk,
To sway t the trees and birds
As they fly over your head.
Opps! A seagull turd
On your head
As you stopped to smell the scent of the peace rose,
Instead
Ignoring the negative turd
Of the bird
That reminds you of vibes of your sides.

Of your empathy and sympathy to glide
Into the new year,
Without a tear.
Go forward with a smile,
And flowers in your hair
All the while
Without a care
It is the garden of sunshine & roses
To bundle up in a cup,
To drink up
All the sunshine
To fill your body up,
As half full cup
Not half empty!

You are happy,
As can be
To smell the rose in your hair
Cause you do care.
Move forward.
Move ahead!
Listen to your brain
As the new year begins
Completely sober and sane.

I smell the flowers, and i smile! ☀️
This is true:No one knows their worth
By reading your piece, it was like taking a great inhale and saying, “ahhh” after breathing out at sniffing a rose. Your assessment of the beginning of 2025 brings into sharp focus a way to go about your days always smelling the flowers. Just watch out for those seagulls.
