Still Growing Wildflowers Quotes

“here's the thing about wildflowers
they take root wherever they are
grow strong through the wind, rain, pain, sunshine, blue skies and starless nights
they dance, even when it seems there is nothing worth dancing for
they bloom
with or without you”
― Alisha Christensen, Still Growing Wildflowers

“sunlight
dances on my skin
like fingertips
feet
rooting in the earth as she whispers
you are read
even though it hurts
--blooming”
― Alisha Christensen, Still Growing Wildflowers

“You do not get to pick and choose
the parts of me that you love
as if you're picking petals from a flower
love me
love me not
love this
not that
throwing the down on the grass while I'm asking
do you love me
do you love me
do you love me yet
by the time you are done pulling at the core
there is nothing left for you to love anymore”
― Alisha Christensen, Still Growing Wildflowers

“I go through my days quietly
trying not to make waves
but one whisper creates ripples in the sleeping sea
don't make a sound I say
too late
it's awake
--tsunami”
― Alisha Christensen, Still Growing Wildflowers
