The choice is yours to take

It took the planted seed forever to germinate 
Its beautiful blossom withered, welcoming a friendly rain 
I have seen the sun fall before the dawn rises 
Yet watered every sweat to the rooted root like a basket fully holding it 

The Can is yours to take home; let go of the watering and allow nature to grow 

It was a miraculous mirage, hoping it would turn a new green leaf 
I sat with my imprisoned inner eye beneath another long armed tree 
Ready to be plucked without ado or stress
Where I had no handful sown yet reaped from  ripened fruitful fruits 

Awakening your oblivion to the begotten truthful tale
Wherever on fertile land, a seed drop shall rise again
Adam wasn't fearlessly fearful of Eve but of the favourite forbidden fruits 
(C) Yusuf, A.O
