My dear, you belong
With the wildflowers, where
Your roots can grow deep
*
My dear, there’s nothing
Wrong with your beauty; just the
Company you keep
*
Your wounds are like seeds.
Spread them far and wide, and one
Day they will grow tall
*
It takes time to bloom
But one day soon, you’ll find
Yourself after all

This is brilliantly satisfying, the way each message stands alone and flows together as a whole.
Will I find myself? Oh, I guess you weren't talking to me. This is beautiful, nonetheless.
Hey, just letting you know I shared this poem in my latest story: https://shopping-feedback.today/poets/poppy-s-preferences-pt2%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/a%3E%3C/p%3E%3C/div%3E%3C/div%3E%3C/div%3E%3Cdiv class="css-w4qknv-Replies">
These are absolutely stunning. I love how they are complete separately but work well together too. Amazing work!
Loved the multiple haikus used for the narrative! A truly inspiring analogy, too!
Great tone of the poem! And cool structure. 👏☺️
I loved the positive vibes of this poem! Very uplifting!
Joelle, there is wisdom here. My favorite lines are "Your wounds are like seeds./Spread them far and wide, and one/Day they will grow tall." 👏👏👏
