UNNAMED

This petal fell
As the flowers grew
In a troubled earth.

Though we wanted flowers,
Two were already planted:

One in love, and the other
In what took the semblance of chaos.

Where prayers were offered now and then,
For safe earthly arrivals.

But the rain never fell
On the petals nor the flowers.

Yet even the unnamed would know,
That nature’s ways are different.
