April #26

Love can be grown,
encouraged, started indoors
and then moved
after the heavy frosts,
a domestic plant
that couldn't survive the cold.
But love can also be the quailing violet
who arises after the first rain
early in the spring
and can be seen until
late fall.
But either one
can heal when injured
can recover from a wound.
Love is powerful
no matter how it starts.
