2025/Lillia-

I am from flowers on a sunny day,

From golden honey and fresh air.

I am from the planes under wispy clouds.

It tasted like orchid, the strongest of pinks.

I am from fluffy bumblebees and big annoying wasps,

The world is a different place – better or worse,

Whose views I remember

As if they were my own.

I am from a cornsilk dandelion and a bright fuchsia lily

From Lillie and Noe.

I am from the hilarious

And the kind,

From “Shut up!!” and “May you be quiet.”

I am from the clear golden honey

With a meadow full of views and truth

And ten pieces of cake I can serve myself.

I’m from a bright yellow dandelion and an orchid pink lily,

Glistening purple stars in a dark blue sky.

From the clear sugar crystals lost to the bright amber honey

To the night owls under the light of the full moon,

Under my bed was a cup of water spilling shimmering radiant stars,

A mysterious world of fantasy and nightmares

To drift beneath my dreams.

I am from those moments – as I walked and touched the fabric of existence.

I am a leaf and I’m from the family tree.
