Grey Skies and Poppies

Grey Skies and Poppies

9x12” Watercolour on Paper

It’s easy to grow and bloom when the conditions are right,

when everything is all sunshine and happiness.

But making the decision to bloom

even when everything looks cold and grey

that’s where your vibrant colour really pops and shines.

This is when you truly stand out.

It’s also the version of you

that tends to be forgotten

once the sunshine arrives,

acting like what you just did was nothing.

But this version of you who

did the work,

had the conviction and

pushed through the doom and gloom.

This is the You right now,

right here

today

This is the version of you

who is making the choice to bloom,

even when all you saw were grey skies.  

You made that choice.

Again, and again.

You did that before,

You’re doing it now.

And that my friend,

is the version of you

worth remembering.
