2009 Poem ‘Flowers of the heart’ by Walter Lerchner, U.S.A. from the Book ‘Poems of Love and Seeking’ Pages 47 and 48

A flower of love
grew in heart's wide and open land
A flower of joy blossomed
Spreading its fragrance far around

They both joined in a most mysterious way
Giving rise to nature’s most nourishing play

The flowers became fruits
And the fruits bore seeds
The seeds grew flowers anew
Spreading in heart’s wide and open land

The Mother smiled watching the play
It was her, who first planted the seeds
It was out of her, the flowers first grew

Giving rise to love and joy
in heart’s wide and open land
