Ekphrastic Poem by Halle
A single rose
On the island
Representing the beauty
Of the desolate world
Being alone somehow
causes you to see
The beauty of the world
When the rain falls
When the moonlight streams through the window
When the sun perfectly encapsulates someone’s essence
When the birds chirp in the morning
And greet you into a new day
The single rose
On the island
Isolation somehow makes us
Observant
Grateful
Beautiful
