Spring rain melts and thaws,
Exposes the true colours underneath the innocent snow white snow.
Flowers bloom in virility, promiscuous creatures they,
Expose themselves by exploding in extravagance for all to experience,
Sensuous smell, touch, and oh what a sight.
Is such an act a sin?
Nay, it is but the beauty of nature.
Naked expression,
No holding back,
No mask to hide behind,
But true and virtuous.
This is a free verse poem I wrote about exposing truth and being who you are without hiding behind a fake facade, through metaphor of spring thaw and bloom of flowers. There is no rhyme scheme nor meter. It fits with my theme because it is set in the spring. There is a repetition of the "uous" sound throughout the poem to express the grace and dignity of flowers. The repetition of the "ex" shows the boldness of the flowers.

Yea I agree that being who you are is incredibly important. Don't let other people push you around. You make sure you make that point clear, and anything that you may be ashamed of, you shouldn't. I really like your lines "in such an act a sin? Nay, it is but the beauty of nature." That is a very inspiring line.
