 Evening Primrose
by Tammy Hamrick

How is it that from just a small bud,
To an open flower it grows,
In a moment this amazing gift from God,
Opens gracefully, this Evening Primrose

Like the brush of an artist,
Much to my surprise,
Is unveiled a beautiful picture,
Right before my eyes.

Like splashes of yellow on canvas,
One here, one there,
They spring open one after another,
A sight like this is so rare.

From it's soft yellow slim bud,
Each one slowly unfolds,
To reveal the full beauty,
That it beholds.

Each night at dusk,
As the sun fades away,
It’s warm yellow flowers
Brighten what’s left of the day

The artist of this masterpiece,
Is He who created the earth,
Who reveals a miracle to us,
In each sunset, creature and birth.

This yellow Evening Primrose,
Only deepens my belief in Him,
Every time I see the works of His hand,
I’m amazed with His Grace again.

How can I not believe,
In His power so divine,
When He shows me these awesome creations,
That can only be by His design.

So I thank you my Lord,
As my awe for You still grows,
With each blessing You reveal to me,
Like this yellow Evening Primrose.
