early surprise
a short walk to the corner
and this early bloom
was peeking out
somewhat hidden in the leaves
of the rose garden
i almost missed her...
the walk was hard
body worn and weary
dragging each step
slowly
wanting to be stronger
wanting to walk more
wanting to have my life back
and then this invitation
to new life
and beauty
reminded me
i will be stronger
i will walk more
i will have a life back
i just wish it was now.......
