Wild Flower

Wild Flower By Nate Spears Published 2013 In Death Of A Rose by Nate Spears Rescue this sunflower It's capable of being a ray of light Nurture it, value it, and love it Its petals are more delicate than they appear in sight A wild flower it is; but it displays beauty The facts of its species remain unknown Its fight to reach its true potential is admired It’ birth to existence is undetermined It’s roots shows trauma Its presentation brings hesitates to potential caregivers No one's prepared to take a chance This flower is destined to win All earthly roots sprout from above At some point in a life’s span; we could use a kiss or hug He who refuses to display any element of the wild Is merely real An artificial representation of life Stuck in Styrofoam surrounded by fake moss and dust No breath, no soul, non-existence A human being choked from an outer dimension. Rescue this wild flower with love.
