thank you all for your help with my entries.
who i am...
i am the last blossom on the tree.
the one that teases you into thinking
the season has not yet ended.
i sit high a top where i can not be touched
waving at passers by,
safe from those that would feel the need to control what they can not.
i am the promise that things
hold tight to yesterday's dreams,
and look forward to each new day as i open to the sunlight.
i am the last breath of summer sun on the
back of your neck,
the sunday morning that you wished would last forever
and the place you stayed just a minute longer
then you were allowed.
and as the days grow shorter and i begin to wither
and fade,
i am the petals that fall to the ground becoming
one with the earth,
laying hope for what has yet to come.
