I glanced east across the yard
And there to my surprise
There was a mystery lily
From bare ground it did arise.
How can one day there be nothing
The next, this gorgeous flower
Indeed a magic wonder
And proof of higher power.
It reminded me of friendships
Whose leaves have died away,
But at times when least expected
When old pains have resurrected
Friends emerge from nowhere to make my day.
Ah! Wondrous flower
Ah! Friends divine
You grace my life and give me hope
In ways beyond define.
