Wildflower
by Alexander Shaumyan

She's a wildflower, let her be,
Don't try to make her into something she's not--
She's quick-tempered, furious and hot,
And stormy and unruly like the sea.

And let the blazing passion in her eyes
Sing poetry within her heart untamed,
That in her movements like a welcome flame
Burns brightly in defiance and never dies.

And if a thousand deaths should rain on me,
I'll feel her gentle presence come alive
Within each breath I take--now brought to life--
Ignited by her spirit bold and free.

[The Mayor]

When You said, "Seek My face," my heart said to You, "Your face, Lord, I will seek." —Psalm 27:8

Talk with God—He longs to hear from you.
