Hope

What is that little pink thing on the patch of grass in the middle of the desert?
i knelt down beside it... took a closer look...

it's a pretty little flower...
not exactly a flower though...
a little pink flower bud...
wondering to myself... how can such a delicate life survive in such harsh conditions?
surviving in the middle of the scorching desert?

on closer examination...
i seem to have seen it before... somewhere...
somehow... i remember the name of this little bud...
it's called...
the flower of hope...
