Love's Fragile Shoots

Hybrid seed planted on rocky ledge Shallow shoots baring tomorrow's dreams Sunny vistas lure fragile roots to the edge Clouded visions hover distilled with availing streams Prevailing winds scour surface, growing strains hedge Cool, night air shivers; a paring frost rends fibrous seams Blighting fears preen stalk but fealty's sustenance cannot dredge Morn's warming rays on your fortified residual gleams
