The Sunday Muse |
We all need space to grow
tilting our faces towards the sun
turning from darkness to light
on common ground, unified
standing unwavering, side by side
a time of deep communing
braving harsh realities of life
planting seeds for tomorrow
expanding roots into the earth
bowing our heads in exhaustion
food for thought, heavy some days
but, our blooms will brighten the way
loyal
steadfast
optimistic
peaceful in nature
Linking with The Sunday Muse
Thank you for your visit
wishing you peace & light
Love the optimism in this - 'our blooms will brighten the way.'
