Encasing in muddy warmth
Nourishing in her essence
Earth whispers a secret
A sprout emerges hence
Seed, is seed no more
To change, it deems compliance
Tender stem , cotyledons
Attempt at self reliance
Higher and higher, up and out
Shoots aspire to sky
Roots go deeper inside
Yearning for primal why
Branches flowers buds and leaves
Do they exist for a reason?
Such bounty from just a seed!
A new show every season!
Summers bedeck with boons
Heavy enough to share
To wither and drop at the altar
In Winters that strip bare
Through ecstasy and despair
Quietude and strife
Whispered again is the secret
Into new seeds of life
