‪We’re in a black-and-white world‬
‪Still color persists ‬
‪Through the cracks in the pavement ‬
‪Where color exists ‬
‪It’s in the form of a flower ‬
‪Through growth it insists ‬
‪To break through the barriers ‬
‪That conform and resist ‬
‪Through the concrete and pavement ‬
‪Through the scent of denial ‬
‪Through the harsh winter weather‬
‪It stands ***** with a smile‬
‪And brightens the landscape‬
‪With class and with style‬
That my otherwise fall victim
To the worn and the vile
