Blooming Rose


I pull the water in from the moist soil
sucking it up with all my might
and then wait for the magic to happen

It comes every year
every flowers favorite time
spring, the time when we bloom

Now that time has come
I wish to be a red rose
so I become one

  • I LOVE YOU

    In all your sadness and glory, wins and losses

    Let me be there

    Own the fact I will be here forever

    Very much attached to your side

    Even when you wish me gone

    Your light will always guide my ship

         Late at night, my igloo is cozy and warm, unlike the Artic outside. Grandmum tucks me into bed, but doesn't leave just yet. She takes a seat on the edge of my bed, and prepares her story telling voice.
