I wake up

 

And see a flower

So Pretty

So sweet

 

I see a thistle

Sharp

On the outside

Soft on the inside

 

I see the sky

Always there

Steadfast

True

 

I see the water

As it flows

It leaves me behind

yet

I couldn't live without it

 

I see the trees

They look so calm, so still, so green

But in a storm

they strike back

They howl

they thrash

they shake

they fall

 

And

I see

me

Who am I?

 

No one's perfect.

 

Just be the best you.

I did this for school. I never though I could be good at poetry. I guess I just never tried. I'm not even sure this is good. Please leave a comment. (Constructive critisism is welcome). Thx for reading.

There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature—the assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after winter. —Rachel Carson

I really like the calmness to this, and how it demonstrates that everything and everyone has a good side, even if you can't always see it. ❤️
