Forget-Me-Not

Forget-Me-Not
 Mj Pettengill

Forget-me-not because of my petite yet brilliant splendor,

as I stand my ground against the vast greenness

of the coming summer.

Forget-me-not because I am bold,

assured,

and I come back to greet you

even if you were to forget.

Forget-me-not because we grow together,

born from the same earthen womb,

to which we shall return.
