With any change taking place in the world these days, we need resilience.
There is much to learn from the Lotus flower, which grows in murky waters. The lotus is positive, has strong support,is adaptable,takes care of itself and is in touch with reality.
A charming pink flower
Found standing, still radiant, in mud
Growing by the hour
The flower blooms
In waters murky and chugged with filth
Where there is no room
The petals will reveal
No matter the place or tie
When needed, conceal
The stem upright
With the help of resolute eyes
That keep it in their sight
It stands strong
Looks over its own petals and leaves
An form graceful, long
The lotus that will stay so fair
And beauteous through all time
Sturdy in mud, without a care
Lovely flower it stays, that time will stare
