The Rose

rising from the ground
so slowly
breaking free
Leaving to reach mid air
blowing in the breeze gently
one by one each petal grows
infusing colour the bud enclosed
the sun breaks free from the sky
The dark clouds start to cry
petals awakened they feel the rain
sometime soon
awakened a rose in bloom.
