desert rose

             
let your words bloom              
as they are whispered            
into a barren world              
             
the flowers you create        
with your poetic voice           
are unique to you              
             
sprinkled across the hills              
smiling up at the sun              
you bring color          
to the vast void              
             
poetry flowers              
blossom in the minds              
of those you gently touch              
             
a sweet aroma              
awakens the senses              
brings to memory              
what should be              
not what is              
             
torn & tattered              
so many souls              
drug through the fire              
             
with your tender blooms              
you add beauty              
to the badlands              
where people thirst              
for healing wisdom              
             
you are a desert rose              
mighty & strong              
surviving against all the odds              
             
to bring a gentle peace              
to a weary place
