Burdock

 

-------Burdock-------

 

Stuck to me 

like a burdock burr

 

Is a stubborn faith 

in people.

 

The most prickly 

among us even

 

Have a taproot stretching 

deep into the earth

 

Into a time

of ancestors and children

 

Where wonder 

still resides

 

And the faith 

inside me lies

 

That a taste of this 

need only be remembered

 

For so much

in this world to change.
