Hibiscus
Hibiscus
Blooms today,
Withers tomorrow.
Gorgeous color,
Lives only one day.
What a pity!
Why not stay?
It has no worry,
Nature was made.
When it’s alive,
It lives fully.
Gives it all,
For Creator’s glory!

That’s the poem I did back in September 2016. I didn’t want to do a reblog, because sometimes it won’t show the entire post. I just redid it. Thank you for your comment!
