Wildflower

written by Hannah Shee

-------------------

Be like a wildflower.

Untouched by acrimony, simply existing and flourishing without disturbance.

Be free and beautiful, like a wildflower.

Wildflowers may look tame, but they are strong.

Independent and limitless,

like a fortress hidden in softness.

Through storms and quakes, they wither,

yet regain their originality again and again.

Their companions - the animals and the wind -

scatter their descendants wherever they go,

helping new life bloom.

Be like a wildflower; surround yourself with positivity.

They grow among beauty in reality.

With every passing season,

they symbolize different meanings

when gifted to loved ones throughout life.

Celebrations - flowers.

Crafts - more flowers.

Experiments - flowers still.

Drinks - flowers can play a part.

Funerals? Flowers… fading, yet present.

Be like a wildflower; they have substance to offer.

When you are in your most prominent state,

you will attract happiness toward you.

Flowers vanish quickly, like our youth.

Be like a wildflower -

even when they wither,

it had lived a fulfilling life.

-

These are the moments

when I find inspiration in wildflowers,

not humans.
