A Moment of Joy

It was a dull and lifeless day of brown and gray I'd walked around until I found A little flower all alone in beauty grown which caught my eye as I passed by The color I was blessed to see had lifted me and as it grew my spirit flew *Minute Poem - See A plea For Spring for full description

love this little write Robin. Reminds me of a thought I had the other day about a little dandelion growing out of a crack in a sidewalk and no other flowers in sight. Why the thought crossed my mind I have no idea...lol.
