The Greatest Artist - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

Even for the recovering addict, the world is not all gloom and doom

A flower is coaxed to blossom and grow
The earth caresses the beginning seed
A tender touch, quenching drops of rain
The warming sunbeams feed its bloom

Growing steadily from solid roots
Nurtured and loved by Gods soft touch
It breaks the surface in search of air
Ever reaching towards the heavens

Leaves covered in prickly fuzz
Creating a base for awesome glory
Moist with dew it glows dull green
As its true nature prepares to escape

Predestined beauty begins to show
As stem forms a bud waiting for birth
Petal by soft petal it slowly opens
Revealing a feast for human eyes

Masterfully painted in colors bright
White velvet softness trimmed in purple
Bright orange center reflecting mild
Creating a kaleidoscope of contradiction

Honey sweet scent filling the air
Jasmine and lavender swirled in one
Scintillating souls to rejoice in peace
Found in its splendor, pure serenity

Living eternal in images of memory
This glorious gift given with love
Enticing emotions of awe and wonder
Created for us by the Greatest Artist
