flower

there is a flower in your windowsill,
you took it from here,
you put it there.
i know it bloomed
and now you nourish it,
help it grow.

i wonder what it takes
to make a flower grow?
- caress its petals
- i'm sure you talk to it,
put your hands around the bloom,
protect it and whisper
soft, gentle words

you can't see a flower grow
with your eyes!
with your inner sight,
you have to feel it, isn't it?
inside you,
in your heart, some would say.

there is a flower in your windowsill,
blooming.
i don't know its colour,
i do know its beautiful.

don't ask me how,
i just do!
