Blooming Anyways…
When the world seizes
Contracts, restricting joy
Afflictions of anger sneezes
Bloom anyways…
When the streets screech
Coughing, polluting peace
Disgusted vomit of speech
Bloom anyways…
When the thorns catch
Sting, snagging our days
Choking delights of pea patch
Bloom anyways…
When the minutes pass
Unrelenting, burning hope
Oppressions of love’s expression
Bloom anyways…
Not to improve our view
Yet to light the path for another
Blooming, beauty construed
Clasping hands, united with Nature
Becoming the lamp of forever…
Only held up together🌅
