Bud Poem by Meghan Fenwick-Boland
Bud
I saw a single flower bud,
About ready to make its grand debut
so full of anticipatory rapture;
The next day -eaten- by a slug.
It made me think back
to us-
Those feelings crystalised,
Like a dormant infection.
Shuttered closed, burst open like spring.
Those raw nerve endings,
hadn't covered over with new skin;
They were just still.
