Sidewalk Bloom

By theopiumfairy

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Struggling to grow between the cracks of the pavement, the little flower stretches up towords the sun.  But as it grows, beneath the suns rays the pavement begins to put pressure on it's root of being. The flower wilts as it gives up, and the petals start to fall, the sun loses it's brilliance and the flower wilts and dies. Written July 18th, 2001 © on Feb 19 2002 11:51 AM PST   0 • 1
