Prompt: Adversity

Still standing

In frenzy the williwaw broke,

Branches broken; the Green crushed

Wilderness swollen, weather peppered

Stormy whistles; drizzle so cursed

Yet she held on to every drop of rain

Mired, Grimed, Smirched everywhere

But timidly she smiled at adversities

Because they can't keep her on knees forever
