The Single Daffodil
I staked out strategically vital areas of the ground
Rain and clouds are rising in the sky
Inhaling the petrichor refreshed me
On the innermost side, I'm confused
What I feel is deeply rooted in my persona.
The dying are showered with affection
With wide arms to meet the afflicted
Sentient souls are left to fend for themselves
A pledge of peace is an act of love
Let's rely on one another
What happens if we cease hoping?
I adopt a break to savor the lone wildflower
Realizing there is an array of flowers
That won't acquire any focus or scrutiny
To expand higher, toward the sun
The sky is clear and overcast
Emitting a faint glow
Despite this, we stick with one another
Volunteers sprout from roots
For the sake of saving us all
Should we stay alive to save our true nature?
An inner voice urges us onward
Avoid wasting strength on rage
And won't benefit from the conflicts
Our forefathers were quite busy
However, their guidance could be valuable
We can also learn from them
Let's build up our strength
And show mercy
Toward those who have strayed
This is an intense expression of love.
Spring arrival has been duly stated
We shall recover our mobility
While holding hands and floating along.
