Flower Of The Woods Poem by Lorraine Margueritte Gasrel Black

Flower Of The Woods

Rating: 5.0


Woodstock, I
hear your song on the wing:
my heart is with you
now

And heavenly are the words
Of Love that you sing.

Child there are stars
in your eyes,
more than the universe can contain.

Nature, your voice
to me brings
a harmony
and I fly free.

Soul, your understanding
fills the heart of
those who love
as I am the Flower of
the woods.
