Creation never stops

Bloom in my chest

Rush to my face

Smile

Like a flower opening

I want to hold it for awhile

Enjoy the colour

Scent

Sweetness

Alas night sets in

The editing

Brings doubt

The flower shrinks

Dropping petals behind me as I walk out

Switch off the light

But before I close my eyes

Alone in the dark

The memory of the flower

Washes

Over

My heart

Another will bloom

Another

And another

I just have to keep creating

That is all there is

No “because”

Or “if”

I am not a bush

A plant, a tree

Yet they give their gifts for free

And do not hold their flowers

Instead they offer them to the day

Unselfishly

Blooming

Radiating life and continuing

To bloom, wilt, drop

The circle of life

Creation never stops
