Poetry:Like a wilting flower

Sky is bright,

Sun is smiling widely,

Can you see it,?

but surely you can feel it.

In the leaves of that tree you see everyday

Just outside your house ,

It is blooming

Trying it’s best to reach that amber glow

And those flowers in your courtyard

Sucking all the goodness

In the quest to spread it’s vibrancy

Isn’t this inspiring?

Moisture in the air will bring rain

Everything around you will jump on the wagon

To complete the cycle

To reach the next stage of life

Meanwhile you can’t let go of the door.

Staying inside

Holding back

There but not all there.

Wanting but not attempting

Scared of the brightness

Highlighting all your imperfections

But will you choose to loose

All the warmth

Staying in the darkness

Like a wilting flower.
