Your Answer Is Near
He was a humble man with the wisdom of years
Her life was a story of betrayal, hurt and tears
The beauty of the flower he could recognize
But he was poor and unwanted in many eyes
Helpless he watched as the flower was walked on
Weeds and thorns around the flower have grown
Daily he prays that the flower would grow again
Remembering this is a place where he had been
The flower does not see nor does it hear
That which she is looking for is very near
He is not a poet but he does understand
Quietly he stretches out his hand
Thorns prick his skin as he pulls weeds
This man gives the flower the love he needs
The flower looks away as she searches the sky
A lonely tear drops and she questions why
His heart aches as he remains her friend
Anguish fills his heart as strong winds bend
That which you seek for is not in the skies
Nearby is a man who who for you cries
.....peace.....
