The blossom pales in comparison

This is an insert from a larger writing of mine with the same title.

 

Green spirals spring from the earth
Life’s refreshing process of recovery
The blossom pales in comparison
Mere evidence of a beautiful synthesis
Sun and rain, earth and atmosphere

Author's Note

The first two lines symbolize change and process. Life is continuously revolving, although not in a circle, repeating itself and following the same path. Instead life revolves following the path of a spiral.

The blossom symbolizes the content and structure of the flower, or the part we see as beautiful or desirable.

In this passage, the blossom also symbolizes the content and structure of our lives, or what we envision for ourselves, seen as beautiful or desirable. What could have been, if only I would have done things differently. Or what will be when I get through this. Or what will be when I accomplish that.

For more please read full writing of the same title.

Thanks for the review. If your looking for heavy, read the story version, this version is the light version. I think you will enjoy the irony in "light".
