The Lotus: Symbolism

Bloom where you're planted
Rise above the murky, muddiness
That tries to engulf
But stay afloat with your head held high

You may not have had a choice
Where you bloom
But you don't have to be
Like the place where you bloom

Though you may be surrounded 
By mud and grime
You stand tall with beauty and dignity
For all to behold and inspire

You let all things bad 
Just roll off you 
Not letting negativity and pessimism 
Blemish or sink you

You radiate the beauty and peace
No matter where you stand
But even in all your beauty
You never forget your roots

For you all the world is one
You don't discriminate 
Everyone is equal 
No matter who they are

You don't know discriminate 
You know no gender, age
For you, preferences, orientation
Colour of the skin doesn't matter

So bloom where you are planted
Shine brightly for all to see
Let your beauty and peace radiate
Making this world a better place to live in
