Pondering the possibility Of pavement as concrete garden Not green but faded grey Definitely depraved hardened Even so one lone weed flower Rises between crumbling cracks Indifferent boisterous bold Never shrinking or looking back Growing even glowing The blue sky never hides Hues of rainbows and sunshine Even the rain washes pavement pain People are like weeds and flowers Amethyst hearted unaware of their power Very much like violets in spring Elephant ears hear voices ring Making mahogany men feel as king Eager to have stroked self esteem Never mind peace pavement dreams That wars are won and lost for queens
