The sun will rise, the moon will glow,
Through fleeting time, the rivers flow.
The stars will shine, the winds will sing,
A whisper soft, of hope they bring.
Through storm and night, the heart will find,
A spark of love, both true and kind.
So cherish now, this fleeting day,
For beauty blooms along the way. 1 reply

The Rose and the Butterfly
by Saadi:
The butterfly sought the company of the rose,
Yearning for sweet nectar as he arose.
"Why do you hide within your petals," he pled,
"Your beauty should be admired instead."
The rose, with wisdom in her reply,
Whispered softly to the butterfly,
"My beauty, though fragile as I bloom,
Is treasured by those who witness my perfume."
The butterfly, enlightened by her grace,
Basked in the beauty of her embrace.
A gentle reminder, the rose imparts,
To cherish the fleeting beauty of our hearts. 5 replies
