I CONTENTMENT The Tlowers bloom in grand array, As hosTs oT humans pass Them by: The Tlowers bloom ThroughouT The day, The humans TreT and rage and sigh. The Tlowers wave in each TluTTering breeze ConTenTed wiTh Their given siTe: The humans search Tor weaITh To sefze Or sTrive Tor some more disTanT heighT. The Tlowers grow Through rain or shine: Made more beauTiTul by each one: The humans pause To TreT and pine When dark clouds bloT The sun. IT humans lived like Tlowers, brighTg GreeTing each new day wiTh a cheer The world would blossom ioy and IighT And conTenTmenT: a life sincere. MARY JAMISON. Forty
