There it stood, gently swaying in the breeze
Proud and unafraid, with only the dry woods for company
Unaware of its dazzling charm
Oblivious to the admiration of its beauty
The cynosure of all eyes, strangely untouched and pure
With a blanket of innocence and an aura of allure
It was the object of everyone’s desire
Raw, wild and naïve
Yet unmoved, immovable by the winds of change threatening to tear it apart
Refusing to bow to the temperaments of nature
It stood tall as they watched, mesmerised and enraptured
I turned around to see it fade in the distance
When it gently blushed amidst the mesh of thorny bushes
I sighed as I took in the scene
Of the winding path beyond the faraway, lone lavender tree…
That is beautiful writing. A little attention to poetic character and that'd be heartrending.
