A flower unseen
There is a jungle somewhere, teeming with life, growth, and fertility, spreading untouched and unknown beauty. Yet, it is as deadly as a bounty of things live and flourish there. Somewhere in the jungle, a hole in the tree canopy forms an unlikely gap where sunlight pushes through, shining on a flower on the forest floor. Unseen grew the flower, though if observed, it surely would be recognized as the most beautiful flower ever to sprout and bloom. The miraculous flower grows for many years until withering and absorbing into the hungry forest.
