My Striking Scarlet
May 7, 2015
Swift like the whipping wind
Bold and fierce
Longs for freedom from the rest of the world
Fast, energetic
Just waiting to explode and release itself to all of creation
Blanketing the earth, painting the people
Not for the weak
A soldier who stands solitary in the midst of battle
Taking risks
Speaking its mind
Does not allow for others to underestimate
Strong when necessary, even when alone
Resilient
Captures attention as it strides confidently into a room of uniformity
Shining from all angles
Brilliant
Riveting
Red
