A new petal unfolds,
revealing another layer of beauty
[hidden within] the tight bud-center.
What next is to be revealed?
Morning’s sun caresses new silk,
sparks through new, gentle dew.
Here, there is no trauma;
only the newness that occurs
at the beginning of a journey.
What will this one bring?
Experience lends me trust
as once again I move into
~ discovery. ~

Beautiful piece!! If we can (re)learn to view the world with the excitement and joy of discovery, life takes on a whole new level of fascination (just ask any child.)

WOW!
First off what a beautiful picture to put with such a remarkable poem! This was really something Bear! I felt as if I were the rose or that I played some part in the poem and if you can do that to your readers then you were obviously born to be a writer. And with that being said I could see this being a very popular piece not only all over the AllPoetry community, but at special occasions with family, friends, or whatever. This would be the perfect poem for a wedding or renewing of vowels ceremony. Love this piece Misha very very good write and I am so honored and humbled to be very first person to review a poem of such high standard!!!
