We All Were Roses

8/24/2020

 
Green leaves trembling in the wind,
flashing 
pink, yellow, and thorns,
smiling 
at how resilient we had become.

Roots entwined 
with the fate of those rocks,
our lumps 
of enduring granite.

We knew 
we belonged there.

Flashing 
pink, yellow, and thorns,
smiling 
with sea spraying
and sun 
sparkling in our eyes,
on our shells,

and green leaves
​trembling in the wind.

We 
all were roses.
