Branches, Trees, Fruits, Roots and Seeds
in a shell full of potential
Carried by the breeze,
Fluffy but tough
Like a dandelion seed;
Stability
had never been a luxury
or guarantee.
And though my roots were weak,
I landed & planted
with intent to grow into a tree.
...
Full of potential
inside my shell,
knowing growth was exponential,
acorns make mighty oaks
but staying grounded’s essential.
And it turns out,
dirt’s
the perfect surface
for learning
your worth.
Humbling
but comforting
in the bust of Gaia,
being nourished by
Mother Earth—
And it’s a reminder to stay thirsty.
...
Drink up all the knowledge
in the rain water
that falls
from the heavenly father—
And reach for the stars
Or even farther.
...
And be prepared
because there
you'll bear
the fruit of your future.
