While You Are Walking Out One Day Poem by Colin Breck Boardman

While you are walking out one day
You may find along the way
Through the sunny flowing fields
A glowing beauty fresh reveal'd;
And you may notice all around
Curious flowers which there abound
Scattering your path with pale petals
(Amongst the nasty stinging nettles)
Which 'pon your face a smile will bring
In rainbow colours which seem to sing
With thoughts of happiness and joy
(Without a stark strategic ploy) .
And if one day you were to spot
The small but sweet 'forget-me-not',
Reflecting stars that sit up high,
Up high within the azure sky,
In quiet blooms of saddest blue,
Forget not that it thinks of you.
