Hidden Flower

Bright spot of yellow on a blanket of green

Lives a meager year and is never seen

Not destined to be woven in a dreaming child's crown

Not meant to be admired, Not meant to be found

None stand above it but ancient, towering trees

None stop to touch it but pollinating bees

What could be the purpose of a flower hidden away

That rises known to no man, and wilts in heat of day?

What could be the purpose of a flower, oh so small

It's to bring glory and pleasure to the ruling king of all

Who takes delight in knowing millions of things

Unknown by greatest scholars and uncontrolled by earthly kings

Hurrah, someone likes my poetry! :) This piece is one of my favorites, isn't it amazing the things we never see, and yet God knows?

It is amazing how many wonders go unnoticed by kings that should have such a great impact. I love the poem.
