Don’t tell me I can’t
Don’t tell me I shouldn’t
The sky is just a petal away
If you won’t reach out
Fine
Mom and dad said
“Just get there
even if
we
did not”
Mom and dad
were tree and branch
Gramma grand pa
the
roots
Plants grow from rock
for
goodness sakes!
I don’t know about you
but I see
light
if you just
reach
for
it
