"No man is an island unto himself"


Spring emerged, following a

Whirlwind of winter weather

Waiting for that ideal day

Earth came to life-untethered.

Flowers bloomed and sunlight shined

Upon the world's green spaces

Yet I payed this but no mind-

And left the season, faithless.

One petal fell in my hand 

And cried out with frustration 

"Will you ever understand?

This is pure celebration."

Since that time, I have learned much 

Thanks to you it has been such.
