This book, When Flowers Speak, Listen, is a flower garden waiting to decorate your life with Beauty and Wonder. The garden has been planted and nurtured. Take the book to a quiet place, slow down and tune in to the Beauty that is before you and around you. There are no rigorous steps to follow, there is only the relaxing and letting flower poems decorate your soul with Mystery and Wonder.

One of my desires in writing this book was to give our children roots and wings. There is only a small step from flowers to children, both are dreams of the Master Gardener. The world evolved one flower at a time, Every single day we should see one beautiful flower. If real flowers are not available, a photograph of one will do. Also one should write or read a flower poem that reveals Beauty, Goodness, zestful adventure, and Peace.

There is no real happiness without having Peace in our homes and our relationships. This book, When Flowers Speak, weaves Beauty and Wonder into the ever widening circles of our lives. By capturing this adventurous enlightenment, we become healthier, happier, and more creative.
