To all:

This was written to a friend,
for somehow we forget that we are always
somehow seen and noticed, if even only by Father.
So if we've something to
do, we best be at it, like this flower.

Your friend and brother - Chuck

I Saw A Flower

C.J. Ingerson
10/18/98

Verse 1
********

"I saw a flower . . .
it was in a glen
where trees
and other weeds
were growing
free and wild,

 Verse 2
********

but this flower
each day awoke
and blossomed
beautiful, lovely
for others to see

Verse 3
********

so even hidden
in this glen
of trees and weeds
it understood its mission

 Verse 4
********

for to be a flower
is to blossom
to be as pretty
as can be
regardless
of who else
might see

Verse 5
*******

for the flower
knows for sure
that Father
always sees
her there each day
in amongst the
trees and weeds
in the glen
where flowers
seldom are seen . . ."
