between the cracks in the sidewalk
a single flower grows
so insulting to the concrete
it's defiant beauty shows
that in love's finest hour
it just can not be denied
and it will find the power
grow through the cracks of pride
this single flower growing
in the face of a concrete world
a love, that's so worth knowing
it makes concrete come unfurled
just like a concrete flower
we've the strength to break through
it's time, let love devour
the pridewalk inside you
a single flower grows
so insulting to the concrete
it's defiant beauty shows
that in love's finest hour
it just can not be denied
and it will find the power
grow through the cracks of pride
this single flower growing
in the face of a concrete world
a love, that's so worth knowing
it makes concrete come unfurled
just like a concrete flower
we've the strength to break through
it's time, let love devour
the pridewalk inside you

Just when I thought it couldn't get better then your poem Murdered by, I read this amazing and truly inspiring poem. There are many reasons why this poem sings to my soul- After reading Murdered by, it is nice to know that within it all flowers still bloom.

wow, this is different for you is it not?
I like it, its sort of summery, and tender, and well, just nice and warm and happyfull.
If your interested in technicallity, it has a really nice tight rhythm too, so it clog dances of the tongue, mmm maybe an irish dance, cos its a bit too pretty for a clog dance
Tis a very fine write, lol, as all yours are, but today of all days this hits the spot
Thankyou
