Poems

Foreign

April 30, 2018 - by nori parelius

A photograph of a red flower in the middle of a green forest

Tell me, red tulip from under the trees
How did you find yourself in their green shade?
How can you grow there with such shameless ease?
How do you enjoy this home that you made?
Tell me, red tulip, please, prove me wrong
How can you grow where you do not belong?

🡠 Quiet before the storm
A spring butterfly 🡢
