Flower Of My Life

A poem by Lucas DeMatio.

Flower in a field

Anyone with a hopeless romantic personality can probably think of a time they have fallen hard for someone. It really comes at you fast and is hard to control. This is a poem I wrote while I was enjoying these feelings, I hope it can bring you some joy as well!


You are the flower of my life, what does this mean?

Sometimes it's hard to tell if this is real life or a dream

When I met you, In my mind appeared a seed

and from that moment I knew I must take heed

wildflowers

The more I learned about you a stem began to sprout

From there I knew there was not much doubt

A flower bud began to form

Feelings were sounding off like little horns

I knew I must make room for another part

As the flower bloomed inside my heart

To keep it alive requires tender care

An adventure I'm excited to share

I love watering your ego with kind words

"You're so beautiful!" can't be too often heard

pink and white flowers

I provide you with the warmth of sunlight with a snug embrace

I never tire of seeing such a beautiful face

When the wind picks up your fresh smell

I again fall under your mystic spell

Thoughts of you buzzing through my mind like bees

These thoughts seem to just set me free

So what do I get in return for all this loving care

Only the most gorgeous flower, ever so rare

The sight of you just fills me with unbridled joy

I am definitely one lucky boy

Often flowers signify a special time in life

This flower will someday be my wife

Because you are my flower

Every time I see you is special

For that is your superpower.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."
