RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR
The Lotus
The beauty of the lotus flower
Lifts our spirits in the darkest hour
Calms our frayed and fragile nerves
Makes the burden of our mind less
In times of tragedy and death
We seek levity and jest
To lift us from our jaded view
That bears no joy or kindness
We turn back to the lotus
As it finds a way to float us
On the deep deep pool of sorrow
To which time and trouble bind us
There is beauty in the world as yet
And if we ever should forget
Just take another look around
The lotus will remind us
