Fragile Beauty Sparkles In Thunderstorms

Fragile Beauty Sparkles In Thunderstorms
Weeds are flowers
that nobody loves.
Wild, tenacious,
infectious.
Seeking, always seeking
life
new life
no borders.
Deep green fighting,
always fighting
for life.
Ripped up, torn
and tossed.
Dug up
by the roots.
Still seeking, always
seeking
life.
Weeds are flowers
that nobody loves:
pesticides
herbicides
gasoline
agent orange
napalm
dark green struggling
for life
seeking, sun
seeking, water
seeking, food
seeking, life.
Life
bud
blossom
flower
raindrops
beautiful
life.
I
love weeds.
