Song: Irene - Jimmy Brown
Soft petals of a flower,
Grazing the new life of a baby.
It's curious eyes drift around,
Looking up and seeing more flowers.
Red roses,
Purple lilies,
Orange peonies.
Its hand reaches out,
Brush the light of nature.
One side,
Dark clouds form.
Vines of thorns,
Wrap the wrist of the child.
Flowers are starting to wilt.
They blow away like ashes.
The child is gone.
In its place,
An adult.
They have no idea of reality.
How they once were treated,
Like a piece of glass,
So delicate.
Solid ground breaking them,
Now shattered and swept away.
