Blossoms in Winter
How do they grow in the cold?
How do they survive the frost?
The cold hatred of doubt
Tortures them by day
And harsh winds of resentment by night
But how do they still yet flourish
Dispite the cold
And radiate beauty to the world
While frost wages war against all
Goodness?
But Spring comes and it dies
As the snow melts to water
It no longer seems so beautiful to the world
And the blossoms fall
When they have accomplished what they came to do
