I am china <br />And glass, <br />Reeds in the wind <br />Sand that flies up and is gone <br />In a breath: <br />Take care. <br /> <br />I am an open wound <br />That gapes, <br />Pulsating <br />Yet fearing infection <br />From careless hands. <br /> <br />I am the remains <br />Of a lover's hearty meal: <br />Enjoyed <br />But thrown aside <br />For the scavengers to find. <br /> <br />I am a loyal bedmate <br />Through the rainy nights, <br />Then left behind <br />For the sunshine. <br /> <br />I am a flower <br />Delicate, <br />But once more ripe for the picking. <br />Take care.<br /><br />jane solanrobertson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/take-care-2/
