Lavender

Let the lavender grow

in your heart.

Let it blossom

and manifest it's

roots deep within

your own.

All of the others

that have died

merely tilled the soil,

making it palpable

enough, making it strong.

Making you strong.

You are more than the weeds,

the broken pots,

the discarded seeds.

You withstood

so many winters,

and survived

the hottest summers.

You are a harvest

meant to be cherished.
