... standing in the meadow / awash in grief ... the beautiful world says ... stay here with us ... mullein and thistle ... brave bluebells still blooming

The photo is glorious. Combined with your words, it suggests that courage and forbearance don't have to express themselves forcefully, or even combatively. Translucent and delicate, the bluebell blooms on.
In and out those dusty bluebells In and out those dusty bluebells In and out those dusty bluebells I am the master Tip a rip a rapper on my shoulder TIp a rip a rapper on your shoulder Tip a rip a rapper on my shoulder I am the master. In and out those dusty bluebells In and out those dusty bluebells In and out those dusty bluebells I am the master. Pretty sure that's it. The Glasgow girls have a dance they do to it.
A lovely poem --there are certainly lessons in courage to be learned in a meadow.

DeleteThe fittest survives the odds, in pain they still gain, in pleasure they don't drown...they remain above all, living the life as it comes. Superb.
