My Garden
Frozen solid,
the ground begins to thaw.
A single flower sprouts
defying the earth's infertile nature.
The winds cold chill batters her
attempting to keep the beauty hidden
deep within the earth's womb.
Stalling, so she might not mature.
The rain pelts down.
She attempts to hold herself up,
drink and not drown.
The fragile green stalk spitefully grows.
She hopes to have the gumption
to withstand the weather,
to unfold her beauty with a blossom.
