The Thistle


plumming purple 

agaisnt all odds

birthed a bloom

in triumphant blood

 

with thorns to shield

and  stalk of steel

plumming ponder

overcoming deil

 

seas of hail

hail from truth

the plumful plant

grew never in ruth

 

the plundering plume

strong willed thistle

admire its beauty

not the tale of its distal
