The Lily Among Thorns

Blossoming elegance
Tender white petals
Captivate the eye
Of souls passing by.

Though sown among thorns
And in the same ground
There is no resemblance
To ever be found.

A different seed
Born of Light
Fills the air
With fragrant delight.


Born of Light
Scenting the breeze
Among the thorns
She remains at ease.

Among the thorns
She brings peace
And gives praise -
 All of her days.




Song of Solomon 2:2
As the lily among thorns,
so is my darling
among the daughters."
