Unknown Blessings

She was a forgotten seed- planted and left alone. She was unnoticeable to those who passed; however, to herself, her presence was known. The soil she was surrounded by was: dark, dry and mostly dirt. She begun too early- the feeling of devastation and hurt. After what seemed like forever, the sky began to express nurture. She grew out of the dirt- in to the beautiful world. Now full of oxygen, her peddles swirled. Not a day passed- where she would not move in the wind; as she knew she was blessed to grow the way that she did. Through hardship, loneliness and pain; she is now able to always appreciate the rain- even if it does so, every single day. - CS
