The Prickly Plant

Minnesota nuclear plant leaked radioactive water in November

 

The place was isolated, yet it grows, the prickly plant

Deserted it’s circumambient, survival a scant 

And all thorny from outside by all its circs 

Judge no book by cover they say, yet misjudged its perks 

A soft flesh inside with tears of agony and strain 

Yet tears a strength of its, tears that never drain

And so it typify as the survivor from infant

Bravery its persona, all in all, the prickly plant

And beautiful flower it blossoms, the flower so rare

The flower so priceless, only once they blossom in entire year

So of all the plant they stand out, so of the almighty’s grant 

Uniqueness a bless, on the top notch, the prickly plant

Misapprehended pedagogue you be, the prickly plant

And on this undignified mankind, your dignity shall chant

And meanwhile I wish all, I hail 

A wish so skeptical in this world of lunatics, a wish to follow your trail...
