Live Like Myself

A Dandelion lives as a Dandelion.
A Forget-not-me live as a Forget-not-me.
A Plantain lives as a Plantain.
A Plantain that live one Rough Earth
Can only grow Toughly,
But on an Oily Earth, it grows
In different style
With Deep – meaning and Sturdiness.
No matter what,
I don’t lose my Identity
And I continue to live as a Plantain.
I learn it here, that I have to
LIVE LIKE MYSELF.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
