To Bloom


To bloom to a flower 

A flower must find its own light

Trust its instinctts

Use its own knowledge and strength

It must travel its own path to the light  

Not stopping for anything, the lure of another flower, the promise a bee makes or the shade and protection a tree can provide

To bloom fully the flower must grow on its own
