Everything small blooms

I found a flower today 

Red and big and strong

It popped against the day and its gray

And it made me feel right amidst all the the wrong

With a stem so green 

One like I’ve never seen 

I plucked it out of its place

And tucked it behind my ear, near my face

With the life so small that I lead

How could I not succeed?

Everywhere I look 

Everything I see

Everyone I meet

love is the only thing I bleed 

In every nook 

In every sea 

Each day I live is a treat so sweet 

and love is all I can be
