Red flower

Sometimes from the most unexpected of places...

Just when we thought today was all but a mosaic of broken dreams,

Out of the doom blooms a beautiful red flower with beautiful white wings,

It's soaring beside us and it's magical...

A miracle.

abstract , I like, reminds me of a teacher I had once. She said that she was having a bad day and a little girl sat next to her on a taxi and smiled rather expressively, for no reason and it didn't matter how late or uncomfortably sticky she was . Were you trying to say that the small things that make our day are the miracles that keep allot of us sane? If so you are also quite right in saying its magical. perhaps you were also trying to tell us to look specifically for this red flower that boldly blooms despite the hell it was given, look for it to make ourselves strong again.

I did try to depict this idea that it's those small things in life that are the miracles, things we never really stop to listen to and appreciate, things that yes, like you said, keep us sane even though we might not realise it most of the time. I wrote this when I realised that life was hard and hectic but then if we just stopped for a moment, we would realise that life had that beautiful red flower too. btw, thank you so much for reading and reviewing :) I'm so glad that you were able to take those words I'd written and interpreted it in such a beautiful way :)

A beautifully penned short piece Kath. I love the hope this shows. That there is light blooming out of the darkness. I believe in miracles, I also believe that every struggle we go through has meaning. It builds character, creates strength and has benefits as well as pain. Thank you for the RR, I enjoyed this a lot.
