Hope is a Flower
January 26, 2015
Hope is a small flower
that only grows in drought
In fire
In storms
Alone and weak
Yet so strong
Through winds and tumults
that threaten to undo it
Hope is a small flower
that blossoms without sunlight
Without water
Without love
It should be dead
But on it prospers
Sending petals of hope
to plant and flourish elsewhere
Hope is a small flower
that stands the tests of time
For years
For centuries
It lives on quietly
in people's hearts
And though it is small
hope is never truly forgotten.
