The sweet smell of the bud fills my mind
The petals now open never to close
Nothing in sight but a beauty in time
The sweet smell of love coming to my nose

I have watched it birth from nothingness
This little bud has finally grown
Now is the time for the greatness to shine
At last it returned never to stand alone

I give it my love and feed it my soul
I watch it in the day, Float over it at night
The light so bright in my mind
I now have something to give, to fight

I can give it my strength let it feed
Show it the way and help it to cultivate
Lead it along the path of greatness within life
Show it the joys it longs and awaits

I handle it with care and faith
Knowing it will blossom with fondness
Show all kindness and delight
Give to all the needs to right the wrongness

So I look upon it with my inner sight
Knowing now its set and protected
For I have watched it grow with utter delight
And the love it gives is forever embedded
