Two wonderfully close friends that I had not seen for a long time came to visit with me yesterday. They left the beautiful hibiscus plant for me – remembered that I had said before that yellow hibiscus is my favorite flower. I usually don't delve into poetry, but the following lines seemed to fit my feelings after the occasion.
My heart feels so warm and full today.
My body was exhausted after your visit.
My soul bolstered.
Precious to spend time with you.
I watched the hibiscus flower open this morning.
Thirty minutes to unwrap to its full beauty.
Lovely to watch, slow and deliberate.
How long did it take for our friendship to blossom so?
Thank you for reading.
For laughing and caring.
Thank you for the love that lingers on the surface, but goes deep.
