A Rainbow Flower
From beyond the horizon of time, my roots unending chose life
for as in the beginning, I in dark of night beheld light
when even in the dark I must climb
when challenges I must face, rather than taking flight
I must look right,. towards the light
even in winter I am a flower.
May I assume any color in the scheme of good things?
assuming any form, in whatever haven I choose
like a rainbow following rain, I'll rise!
I'll rise with crimson gold each clear day
even in winter I am a flower.
From the innermost chambers of my conscience came I,
saturated with thoughts for life
springing forth day and night
like a rainbow shimmering, I rise!
I rise, delighting in life's gift of a new day,
I am a flower even in winter.
