Notes About The Poem

the following poem was written based upon this image--an online poetry class assignment

GIRL WITH FLOWERS

Petals gather in her hands, a hush of color cupped like breath;
sunlight leans across her face, tender as a secret kept close;
in her stillness blooms a truth—beauty is what the heart remembers.
