    About this ebook

    In this book, flowers embody the symbol of hope and inner strength.
    Because even if someone has stepped on a flower, it still finds the power to sprout again towards the sun.

    This collection of poems adheres to this metaphor and tells the beautiful sides of love as well as the abuse.

    The combination of hopefull and anxious days gives "Flowerchild" the perfect bittersweet taste.

      Flowerchild - S. P. Lethe

      Art is beautifull

      but it is alot of

      work.

      - Karl Valentin

      You are a Flowerchild.

      You will rebloom again,

      even if someone stepped on you.

      This book is dedicated to

      my brother Pasquale P.K.

      and to my soulmate H.T.

      Do You See Me?

      Epilogue

      PREFACE

      My work „Flowerchild" is the first in a three-part series on love starting with Eros, the love for his relationship partner, followed by Agape, the love for his family. And finally Philia, the close connection with friends.

      Love is a key word that is only dealt with superficially in the good sense of „charity".

      However, I have deepened this thought for myself and processed it differently in this biographical illustrated book.

      Besides on that, this is not only about the good sides of love, but also about the abuse of it.

      Enjoy it with your cup of coffee or tea.

      Bye for now.

      CONTENT

      -----------------------

      Do you love me?

      Yep, thats the whole content.

      The catchphrase is love.

      I want to touch your hands,

      wishing that you like girls.

      But I know we can`t.

      - (Romans 1:26-27)

      Growing up as a Christ I never allowed to call my first love a girl.

      Because I knew,

      god would never allow me

      to smell her hair and touch her skin.

      I could never call her babe or kiss her lips.

      Love is such a tiny word for a world

      where we are all doomed for the day where we

      will die and return
