Happy Day #7 of National Poetry Month!
Today’s poem is entitled “Bloom.” It is inspired by the beautiful flowers I saw during my afternoon walk.
Bloom
Right where I am lies an opportunity.
It doesn’t look like it, but it is.
It is wrapped in a package I wouldn’t normally open.
My fear of what’s next is stopping me.
I can’t forecast my future.
I have no access to the details.
I can’t control it.
The only thing I can do is surrender, have faith, open the package, and bloom right where I am.
