Desert Flower

I am beauty

sprung from the deep
just now;

I have always been.

petal yearns,
pollen pleads
to be carried
away

but spines of
sharp protection
surround my succulence

until passion's wind
passes over

me

    I love the feeling of being wanted contrasted with uncertain security conveyed in this poem. Its very lightly written, but has such power to it. Beautiful
