I envy the flowers for they stand tall all day with the sun’s full attention Their beauty is not defined by who admires them or to what extent They just simply are They don’t have ears to hear what is said about them They don’t have eyes to see who stares at them They simply just are How lovely would it be if we became more like the flowers? Standing tall, allowing the sun to give us all of its attention Not allowing our beauty or our worth to be determined by others For even when their petals fall, their beauty never fades
