When you fall, look at the beauty in pain of adversity of the unexpected wonders


Above the city's concrete sprawl,
Where steel and glass stand grim and tall,
A secret green begins to bloom,
Dispelling shadows, chasing gloom.

No fertile earth, no open field,
Just barren tar, a hardened shield,
Yet here, where logic finds no hold,
A vibrant, living story's told.

A tiny shoot, a hopeful gleam,
Defies the harsh and urban dream,
It pushes through the stony plight,
And stretches upward to the light.

With careful hands and tender care,
A garden blossoms in the air,
Each potted plant, a whispered plea,
For beauty in adversity.

And so it is with hope, we find,
In unexpected turns of mind,
When all seems lost, and spirits tire,
A spark ignites, a hidden fire.

It rises from the cracks and seams,
Fulfilling long-forgotten dreams,
A rooftop garden, lush and bright,
A testament to future light.
