I was in awe when this exquisite flower first opened its petals
and awe filled my heart even more as raindrops fell
leaving their mark on the exquisite petals
tenderly embracing
gently blessing
its fragile petals

when raindrops of sorrow
touch our bodies, minds, souls
may we allow the tears begin to well up and flow
so healing can begin
tenderly embracing
gently blessing
our fragile souls
