I see you-
faded thoughts
of past drift by...
but I still see you.
I watch quietly,
as you open up..
like a slumbering flower-
awakening for the first
spring of your life.
From a death of emotion
you unfold before my eyes...
I see you ..
smiling in abundant
sunlight...
healthy and alive..
wanting no more than
your own garden to grow in...
to share with others..
as beautiful as you are.
I see you-
as I march silently by..
eyes follow me as I pass...
a tear falls....
because again....
You know spring is here.
and your next chance to grow..
has arrived....
What will you do?
