Our lives, a wondrous garden
each
one different, with different flowers
wide,
as we are, each one unique
Chaotic,
special, unique to each one
a
chaotic garden, alive
Burning
within, alive, with fire,
in
bright, garish colors
or
monochrome, razor thin
splashes
and great swaths
Depending
on each one
A
chaotic garden
all
our own
