There was a flower in the sun,
Shining like morning fun.
Its petals shine with perfect ease,
Warming up from the morning breeze.

I passed it just two days ago,
It was where it should have spurt and grow.
In the meadows, it is happy,
We were there when it happened.

There are plenty just like that,
We have seen them all in the past.
You're the one who spotted them like that,
It's your flower and that is that.
