Now She Is Grown
when she was young and
but a bud she dreamed of a
brilliant sun on
her velvet petals warming
she though not of a
bush or shrub only blossom
beautiful no thorns
or raindrops heavy falling
nor ladybugs wings
now the sun and the moon stars
and planets exist

Challenge: to write a poem on being “young and green” from whatever persona or viewpoint you choose to adopt,
Like Kim Russell, you took a surprising POV and completely astound, Gillena. I loved the contrast between what this young bud dreamed and what came, a mixed blessing of thorn and rain but also far beyond anything she had imagined. I loved "ladybug wings" as one of the pleasures. Beautiful AI image. 💖
