Growing

Sophia Famolari

A sprout is breakingthrough the ground.Adding beauty tothe world around.A bright green plantbarely a stem.Its stitching asperfect as a dress’s hem.A closed bud, ayoung bloom.That will blossomwith colors better thanany room.A beautiful flowergrowing in the sun.Now the growing isall done.
