55001 - The world of flowers

N. Lygeros
Translated from the Greek by Athina Kehagias

If you paid attention
in the world of flowers
whereas you consider it insignificant,
you would see how much attention they pay
to those besides them
and how happy they are
to admire the variety
they constitute
in this microcosm of petals
which resembles a living mosaic.
Pay attention therefore to the details of nature
in order for you to see those of people as well..
Because the garden
is not merely an example
which inspires
Paradise itself
but also the scheme
of Humanity
since that too
obtains the beauty of an icon
which is miraculous
if you have faith
in the Works.
