Perseverant Nature
The wind blows roughly,
Angry, violent and wild,
Refusing to die.
Tree limbs fight the gusts
Warring with the gales of wind
Unwilling to fail.
An ant tugs a crumb,
Striving to reach the pile's top-
Not ready to fail.
A flawless flower
Tall among stifling weeds
Growing despite odds.
