Let me be like beautiful flowers
that burst bold and happy
no matter what troubles surround them
whether rain, fire, or flood.
They are living to shine
even in worst of times.
In death let their petals fall earthward
to join with the soil
maybe reborn in new ways.

Let me be in the end
like a flower of love
in the hearts who remain –
to shine, be a flower of power
no matter what storms
or tumolt they face.
