bloom where you are
don’t fill your mind with what-ifs
bloom where you are
don’t fill your being with second-guesses
bloom where you are
a field of waving colour
soothing mauve, energetic fuscia, quintessential lavender
subtle taupe, charcoal gray,
stunning black, scarlet red, shimmering turquoise,
sweet orange, verdant green,
canary yellow, opalescent white
will spring up in
plain sight
an incandescent wave
emanating in all directions
with you at the center
bloom where
you
are
