That Flower And I Poem by Obed dela Cruz

I can see a flower and it is rare.
Its beauty is far greater than Venus
And its fragrance is the most wonderful.
But that flower’s roots are not yet that strong
That’s why I should not yet dare to have it
For even I have not yet earned such strength.

If that flower must still grow… so am I.
I’ll wait for the right moment to have it
And when I have it, I’ll keep it so good
And that flower and I will keep growing.
