A lone seed
surrounded by stones. With stubborn strength and survival’s goal, this isolated
weed flowers on the side of the road. A single splash of purple and green stands
against white and cream rocks. Boldly sprouting while separated from other
blossoms.
A few steps down the
road, a pair commutes under a cedar tree. Resilient among the rocks, their simple
blooms draws attention. Up along the dry creek bed, rests a cluster of verdant
emerald with pinker tones flowers within last winter’s grasses.
