Question: Do you think that life is like a flower!?
As the sun and water falls on us
We thirst for more!.
As flower opens up it's petals
It knows it can not last!.
The picture of it will remain
Forever in our past!.

The flower as metaphor for a good, but fleeting memory!. Well spoken!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Reminds me of the song, "The Rose"

Some say love it is a river
that drowns the tender reed
Some say love it is a razer
that leaves your soul to blead

Some say love it is a hunger
an endless aching need
I say love it is a flower
and you it's only seed

It's the heart afraid of breaking
that never learns to dance
It's the dream afraid of wakingthat never takes the chance
It's the one who won't be taken
who cannot seem to give
and the soul afraid of dyingthat never learns to live

When the night has been too lonely
and the road has been too long
and you think that love is only
for the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winterfar beneath the bitter snows
lies the seed
that with the sun's love
in the spring
becomes the rose Www@QuestionHome@Com

Beautiful!
How many times have we gazed upon a single, colorful flower, and knew it was alive and "flowering" and the perfect visual expression of our thoughts on Life and it's immortality!.
That's the time to breathe it in!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

For sure!. I have a couple of rose bushes that look so nice just as we do but when their petals fall its like life is dying!. Reminds me i should take some pics of those white and red roses to remind me that if i take care of them i will see life in them again!. That was a nice poem contrasting between life and roses!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

This is quite beautiful and a wonderful, simple, portrait of the futility of life, yet it still gives hope because "we thirst for more"!. Thank you for posting!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

How wonderful this poem is!
The first thought that came to my mind is that Life is rather a flower bed!. Where all of us are the flowers that give this flower bed, life!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

as i begin to sit
i begin to sqeeze
i start to shake in my knees
a drop and splash i wipe my ***
forever down the drain
forever in the pastWww@QuestionHome@Com

And you bring beauty
until you are spent!.
That's how life is meant!.

You did real good, my friend!
