The Small, Plain Bud

Location

In Springtime,

there were many flowers on the tree,

some seeming to be more beautiful than others.

However, one bud stood out to me.

It was a small, plain bud that was not big or colorful like the rest.

Instead, it grew slowly, overcoming the harsh rain and wind each week,

I wondered why I looked upon it more than the other flowers.

It wa just a small, plain bud.  

Enduring for so many weeks, it finally sprouted,

but what came out was nothing more than

a small, plain flower.

It was then I realized, even though it was still small and not very colorful,

it still survived and was stronger than it appeared.

That was what made that bud like me.
