Roots of Life
In the jungle where animals roam free
From atop the highest tree
A seed falls to the ground
In the earth, its' roots of life are found
The mighty oak was once a seed
An acorn with the instructions it needs
To become what it was meant to be
From the jungle floor it rises to become a sturdy tree
The seeds of hope reside within our being
In winter, there is the hope of spring
When there's drought, there is the hope of rain
When all seems lost, hope still remains
In this vast universe love is king
It's the reason for sunshine and rain
The reason why we're here is plain
The seeds of love dwell within all things
