Family grows from roots
though often
from seeds fallen
out of new hands, fresh
off the shaking.  
Look at the bloom
visible from miles off,
blanket of color on landscape
dull and unassuming,
breathe the scent,
carried across a continent
on the backs of wind
and storm.  

This is family,
chosen and granted
by wishes never made,
indivisible
and strong.
