Defiant Weed April 7, 2008

I smile at
this positive self,
my positive self,
as stubborn
as a weed
that comes up
time
and
time
again
even
when the
gardener
who means well
yanks it,
plucks it
with an annoyed
swipe.
My positive self
comes up again
like the defiant weed
some days later,
hidden amongst those
dying blooms
so desperate to continue
their spring
show;
and my positive self
grows
in the shade of those
fading blooms
vibrant
small
green
steadfast
and
determined.
Playful Camel April 7, 2008

This clip is so cute.
I didn’t realize that young camels could be so playful. I have played with kittens and puppies but this is another side to the camel that I had not seen.
