Flowers Bloom In Winter Too

Flowers bloom in winter too

Throughout all the ice

They make it through

And even though the birds no longer play

I can hear the melodies in my head

The fragrance I can't wait to smell

I hold it closely

I even stare

So beautiful and yet so true

This lovely flower

I thought only bloomed in June

Flowers bloom in winter too

I'm reminded every time I look at you

Even in bad days

You can always see

The beauty that resides in me

Your hugs I yearn for every day

The smell of your flesh

I can never walk away

So beautiful and yet so true

I am no longer a skeptic

For I can now see it too

Flowers bloom in winter too
