Don’t start talking beside the flower
Discussing its hue and classification.
That is description!
Don’t just let the smell be nosed
And tell people how fragrant it is.
That is reporting!
Don’t just finger its petals and thorns
And explain the touch of soft and sharp
That is informing!
You are not yet small enough
To know the flower properly yet
You are still outside.
Like the bee, lowly and industrious
Drawn by the sight, smell, and feel
You are in need.
Wanting life for heart and home,
You sink beneath the pedal’s crown
You seek the source.
The hidden warmth, the ever-present aroma
Of the sweetest secret nectar of Life
Now, you are before Him.
