The Language of Flowers

How precious are the flowers that we see on earth each day!
Their colors and their fragrance delight us more than words can say.
We give them to our loved ones to express how much we care,
The beauty that they show us is well beyond compare.
What a dull world it would be without blooms to give us happiness!
The wonder they create for us, mere words cannot express.
Sweet blooms adorn the alter in the Church we oft' attend;
Their beauty frames our weddings; or gives comfort to a friend.
Flowers speak what words cannot on many a special day;
Their fragrance fills our tables as we bow our heads and pray.
Whether happiness or sorrow, they help us all to say,
How special are life's blessings--
Oh , what a flower can say!
