Stand

If you’re a wild flower,
Whether bleak or bright,
Don’t worry about your height,
Or who or whom surrounds,
Just let your hues flash,
The winds never do them justice.

Fear nothing.

If you’re an everlasting weed,
Whether poised or plight,
Don’t worry about tonight,
Or who or whom dares pull,
Just stand and be resilient,
You won’t do you harm.
