To become a tree

To become a tree

A seed needs few things,

The pleasant moist soil of Earth

The gentle warm light of stars

The willful desire to be.

Earth gives us resources to survive

The Sun gives us the knowledge to thrive

This is what makes me.

The Sunlight illuminates what we need

Without sunlight seeds have no direction

And will struggle to become trees.

This is the reality,

The Earth moves and changes scenes

So it's struggling seedlings can see

Far from it's roots but closer to truth

Open to the sun's wisdom and Grace

Providing light to grow in their new place
