A beautiful flower

A poem I wrote to Michelle a few years ago on our anniversary…

A Beautiful Flower 

I first noticed you much as a man hurrying along a sidewalk notices a flower.

I thought, “Now, there is something pretty.”

The next time I passed, I slowed down and observed,

“Now, there is something vibrant.”

Then came the divine nudge to stop and truly take note of the flower.

I did, and I realized,

“Now, there is someone beautiful.”
