Here’s a short poem for you.

Love:

We all bloom like flowers…

This piece tells of the state of mind of the old. Despite their trials and tribulations, they want to live on to see the blossoming of their children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren.

Blossom sweet blossom.

Lost Love.

My first poem.
