Musings on Renewal

Seed
Something dies
Goes back in the ground
Stiff
Surrounded
Buried
Still
Darkness

Hope
Water
Rich soil
Nutrients seep in
Life forms
Inside out
Sprout
Still in the dark
Moving up through the soil
No one can see it yet
Still stiff
Still small

Breaking ground
Light
Air
It's so small
Sprout
Rising
Water
Nutrients
Growth
Movement
Strength

Becoming
Tree, plant, blossom
Beauty
Swaying in the wind
Bending without breaking

Renewal
Re-New
Remember the darkness
Find the light
Over and over again
