Who am I ?

Here is my entry for PoAttic5 

******************************
Behold, a wallflower half hidden by stone,

But not without sharp  prickly thorns.

That sometimes make negligent passerbys

Stop and look at  what nature adorns,

                     ****

 Look  ! A twilight of blushing shades of red,

Awaiting dark night full of shining stars.

A nimble mountain river falling from the cliff,

Or an unhurried  stream with  a languid skiff,

                 ****
Watch  !A rebel trying hard to change ,

 A stubborn crowd ,a surging mob,

A helpless coward watching with disdain,

Barbaric acts of violence causing bane,

                    ****
Discern ! An amalgam of emotions wild,

A drop of nectar with tears of pain,

Though hurt it is a thousand times,

Still loves with passion,a silly heart arcane.
                        ****
View! A broken hut in desolate valley,

With flowery creepers overgrown,rife,

Having the best and the worst imaginable,

Playing with jest the game called life.
