A poem my dad made for me 8 years ago..

A WOMAN IN BLOOM



When it was done in six days he knew that it was good.

He designed with perfection and built with joy and affection.

No light or shadow, no fragrance or color was out of place.

He hung the stars, the sun and the moon like jewels in space.

Summer followed spring and morning came after evening.

Life moved with precision, no room or second for indecision.

Human was good for nature and nature was good for human.

Cause, formula and price were right according to the plan.

Every human could afford mandarin with egg and aloe vera.

Any bug would flee from the smell of calendula and citronella.

The branding was brilliant and the marketing was excellent.

Everyone was able and available, hardworking and enduring.

But beyond the logic, the dream, the glitter and the magic,

Were… uncorrupted hearts, and minds that were unpolluted.

Purest and clearest of all was the second to the youngest,

Loyal, loving and caring, simple, able and simply beautiful

Camille of the scents and the flowers, mimim to her admirers

Secret ingredient, it factor, silent worker, heart in human nature

God’s plan is perfect, the flowers are blooming…the lady is in love.

All’s well with the world, on the seventh day… he rested.
