Hope
This strawberry plant
reaching across grey, cold concrete
gives me hope.
Feelings its way to moisture,
a place to root
in fecund
deepness,
a place to
swell in a juicy
sweetness
of shining
brightness.
Trapped in deadly plastic
it reaches beyond its confines
for freedom,
stretching its cramped limbs
for space,
and blooming.
Tenaciously it tendrills
hopefully
forward
to find a more succulent,
vibrant,
healthy,
home
for generations
of strawberries
to come.

You might also be interested in talking to me about coaching , or maybe try some of my online courses (some are free), or treat yourself to a climate protecting pamper with vegan friendly, organic Tropic which supports the planting of forests and education in deprived areas.
Thanks for being here.
