seasons
Winter days came and went
on the earth that was my heart
but then the earth turned to a seed
and bloomed into the dark
that flower stood tall and alone
until someone chopped her down
and pressed her in their pocketbook
where never she would be found
one by one her petals fell
out into the street
where her delicate face was only met
by a million crunching feet
but one day the good strong wind
found her many parts
and took her to a desert land
where she had never left her mark
the constant summer head
was different from her home
in the heat, others grew
while at home she was alone
still she said, she had to miss
the winters of her youth
but winter comes, even in the desert
for those who care to look
