The Tree of Nutrition
A child is born,
Drinking from the Tree of Nutrition,
Growing strong and free.
With brown eyes and curly hair,
A symbol of the past and present,
This little one holds on tight,
Tears falling as the offering is given.
From the omnipotent Tree,
Metabolic characteristics are formed,
Breathing in oxygen and nitrogen,
Amidst the cacophony of life.
But to the developed ear,
This cacophony means love and joy,
A conduit between Agape's love
And the fear of the undeveloped.
The perfection of six,
A wellspring sanctuary grown,
Holding this child in my arms,
I am in my true form,
Agape's developed presence.
