Little Rose on the Sidewalk

Small budding rose on the sidewalk

Too weak to survive the winter

Or the prints of the boots that walk by every morning

Without so much as a, Hello.

 


Her petals close to blooming

The pretty colour finally growing

Still goes unnoticed by the fools

But she knows beauty doesn't last

So she doesn't think too much about it

Just goes on her way

Her friendships are rewarding

And she has blast with the lilies and the faes


And if you see her on the sidewalk

On a cold winter midnight

Don't you worry, little human

She will survive, to see another day.
