Pervasive Beauty

In the burnt barren wasteland 
Once a graphic garden
I rise from the arms of ashes
A fortified sapling
Split the crevasse of desolateness 
Where I bloom a solitary rose
A pervasive singularity of creativity
Enclosed within the sublime soul
Fathomless as the cosmos
Timeless as the eternity
I unfurl for you in essence
The beauty of the universe.

Congratulations Subimal on your win that takes us not as an observer of the flower in the crannied wall, but as the flower itself. Really nice perspective.
