William Blake in the opening stanza of his poem Auguries of Innocence has penned:
To see a world in a grain of sand,
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour...
I cannot meet William Blake's standards, but here are my few lines
The Wild Flower
A rose, nods its sleepy head
Tended to, in a warm glasshouse
A wildflower, it sways in the breeze
Gazing at the sun, welcoming every hour
A wildflower, I rather be
Providing a burst of unexpected joy
To the true nature lover
