bud
To wake from your sleep
With groggy, foggy eyes
And to know of what you dream
'T is something you keep.
To wake from your daze
Listening to the voices
I notice those faces
Hold close to your bosom, these days.
To recollect the memories
To reminisce those friends,
In winter white sugar
Waiting for spring blooming as
Summer suns beat down on
The remainder of autumn leaves.
I saw these small things
Like the daisies among weeds.
I know those small things
Like summer nights in backyards.
Unbothered by the coming storm,
Undeterred by the higher powers of self-proclaimed kings,
Unaltered by the sheepskin covered thoughts.
I have grown to become
The peony among those creepy Jenny's
Where I was once a bud.
