cracks in the pavement
by Elouise
she tiptoes on eggshells
of shattered dreams —
cracks in the pavement
of life after death erupt
with unexpected beauty
For all the children of the world, young and old,
who live with shattered dreams.

Yes, so it seems. Otherwise, those beautiful little flowers wouldn’t have any space in which to grow!
