Small Treasures

The drive was unremarkable.

An every day bend in the road

changed my point of view.

A shimmer of lavender

floated

  amidst dry winter stalks.

Bend down.

Look closely.

Observe.

Seek the details

in the living.

 

Miniature life

green with spring hope.

Pushing upward

against the odds.

Facing the sun.

Patiently waiting

her Crown of Royalty.

Queen of her own domain.

The smallest of earth's creations

await our singular attention.
