headless

looking, admiring, searching. gliding over blossoms, almost touching, open and extended
colors and shapes, sprouting, standing, spinning in the breeze, delicate and fragile. scattered on the soil, hanging from leaves, shimmering in the sun, beauty for one, food for another
sealed shut, waiting for spring, thorns for distance, distaste for protection, only revealing within in anticipation of warmth. reaching, bending, waiting
headless, selected and chosen for radiance and beauty to sit behind glass, stand tall in ceramics, or fulfilling emotion and commitment with ink and paper. headless, decapitated, half buried, plucked on a whim, tossed and trampled

insignificant, isolated on the fringes, tempting weeds, separated and alone
Clarity.

pang of certainty
waves of doubt, winds blow, weeds grow, rain stops

hands to nourish, hearts to cherish, home to dwell

picked, not plucked, adopted, not abandoned, blooming, not headless
