Mamra Almond Oil

Narcissus flowers full of smiles, hearts full of excitement,
Trees waiting for a new dawn,
With soft leaves, like tender hearts.

Almond, a small seed, full of hope,
It hides the sun within itself,
Every step we take, reminiscing,
Rising from the heart of the earth, like pure love
