I Left My Coat in a Tree

I left my coat Hanging on a tree. A few days later What do I see? A small bird nest In my small coat hood. In that nest were eggs, And I thought that was good. A few days later What do I see? Three or four hatchlings In my coat in the tree. A couple of days later A storm came along. I found my coat on the ground And the hatchlings were gone. I left my coat Hanging on a tree. I hope the chicks flew away And are happy and free.

Blind Flower

Every whispered rumor,

Every little lie,

Is sure to catch up to you.

You cannot run or hide.


It starts out very small,

Seemingly insignificant,

But it grows and it grows

Until the whole world notices. Magnificent.


That little seed you planted,

The one you thought was no big deal,

Becomes a dodder plant that blankets you...

Your fate is sealed.


The dodder drains you, steals your sunlight,

Leaving you weak and in the dark,

A darkness that reflects

The darkness in your heart.


You may cry for help,

But your pleas fall on deaf ears.

The same people who could've been your saviors

Are the ones you gossiped about for years.


The parasite completely suffocates you, 

And what do you become?

A blind, shriveled flower, all alone,

No longer able to greet the sun.
