I ran my fingers through the stubble
Beard on my chin,..... cheeks
I thought it was a miracle !
Chemistry ? Biology ? or sleep ?
Clean and smooth at bedtime
How did it grow the bristle ?
Then I pondered..the beggar on the street
Millionaire on his plush couch
Both grow beards night and day
No man on earth can wish it away !
Growing buds into pretty flowers
Misty-soft baby leaves on mango bowers
Stray plants sprouting on old towers
Green emerald moss on damp walls
Violet orchids growing near waterfalls
Silk button mushrooms on slimy rocks
Tundra ice fissures ,crevices,tiny plants
Silvery,orange,blue,gold,pearl-white tiny fish
I'd love to run my fingers on them-it's my wish!
