PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Small and bright and unassuming;

Inconsequential in it's blooming,

Having few desires or needs,

Hardly different from a weed.

Independent, strong and pretty,

It lives in country, town and city,

Endures the tramp of booted feet

And the delight of hungry sheep

With a tiny, delicate grace,

With whitened fringe and yellow face

And steel-like determination

To complete it's pollination.

These are things that I admire,

Qualities that I desire

For myself, so I aspire

To be more like this little flower.
