Perseverance

©Leigha Francisco PERSEVERANCE Between sirens and sidewalks, up through concrete cracks a dandelion teaches algebra: pressure plus patience equals bloom. Roots read the fault lines, drink the rust that flows, and rewrite the city. If a flower can split stone to achieve its goals, so can you. ----- This Quadrille (44 word poem) shared with those stubborn folks over at DVerse Poets Pub. ©2026 Christopher Reilley    I would love to know what you thought about this piece.  Please consider leaving a comment.
