Blossom
Under spring's wide sky,
a seed's silent plea begins.
Sun's eye nurtures dreams to fly,
to touch the sky, its journey spins.
Through soil and rain, a sprout's way,
a bloom in May's bright sway.
Colors burst, a dazzling display,
spring's floral ballet.
Petals soft in spring's breeze play,
a dance of shadows among trees.
Each a story, a soul at ease,
life's mysteries in May.
As evening falls, blooms stay,
under stars in spring's embrace.
In every bloom, a heartfelt sigh,
life's cycle never says goodbye.
In fields where dreams are sown,
blossoms stand, not alone.
A community, a floral throne,
in nature's hand, fully grown.
