Kindness blooms for those who feel alone. -Michelle Liew

****************************

She crafts blossoms from sunlight and hope

Weaves petals with a gentle touch,

Lone souls who yearn for hope,

Her blossoms whisper love.

Each bouquet touches,

Rekindling warmth,

Refiring

Their cold

hearts.

****************************

A stranger visits on a quiet night,

A bloom she fashioned thence he holds

Petals in the moonlight glow

Their love tale now retold

Flowers blossom twice

Once in her hands,

Once within

Their healed

souls.
