There Stands a Blossom

There stands, a blossom, 
amongst a field, unlikely for it, to grow.
There stands, the blossom,
protruding on, despite assumptions, of no.

There stands, a blossom,
yearning to become, yet different upon, the other kind.
There stands, a blossom,
trying to fit in, from the similar, choosing, to not bind.

There stands, a blossom,
rising above, achieving what needs, to be done.
There stands, a blossom,
in place of all, there realizing, it was, the only one.

I especially like the last line for it could represent so many types of personalities from an honest person to a poet to one who is an encourager standing alone in that field. Sara
