Flower


The first things to emerge are the roots burrowing deep in the soil,
      absorbing the water and nutrients that are present.

Next comes the stem, growing taller and stronger every day.

The buds suddenly appear... small and tiny,
      but with a promising glimmer of the loveliness inside.

The very last thing,
      what we've been waiting for and hoping for,
              finally emerges.

The delicate bloom
      revealing the beauty that was being created the whole time,
              but hidden in the details, the work and time and care required to get there.


Totally impossible without the foundation of roots and stems and cultivating care.




Look at it now.
      It's was so worth the wait!
