Every virtue is like a flower
Blossoming in its own time.
Every virtue is beautiful
In its own way.
All the virtues help men
As flowers smell good and look good.
Each flower has its own unique scent
Just like each virtue has its own unique characteristic.
For example, a rose symbolized the virtue of sacrifice.
A lily symbolizes purity,
Jasmine compassion, and
A red carnation forgiveness.
So flowers help us realize virtue,
Because their scent is beautiful and their
Colors delight us.
Amen
