Growth

Support from the soil,
Desire to reach the sun first,
What makes a tree grow?

Eager snowflakes fall
Happily dancing on wind
Melting once they land

Cigar

Smoke rises like clouds
Ripe leaves, dark as the night sky
Ashes fall like rain

Years later I still struggle with the loss of the friend who introduced me to the world of cigar smoking

Pity

A proud mother's push
Wings spreading to catch the breeze,
a baby grounded

Oh door to nowhere,
How is your handle so worn
Yet you're out of reach

Patience

I'm trying to bloom
Water, nutrients, and light
I watch others grow

Is it a swan song?
Plea for help, etched on a bench
Carved into my mind

Somewhere unimportant there sits a vandalized bench. Etched into it, "I WILL REMAIN". I hope you have, stranger
