Seedy Affairs
I
am
a seed
in the ground
waiting for the sun
to warm me and to wake me up
I feel gentle taps of pluie soaking through the soil
nourishing me
I start to
grow and
change
I
break
the surface
see the light
stretch my tiny leaves
Je suis a sprout, a sapling
I face the vent and storm
they make me strong
I reach for
the sky
green
I
bear
fruits et fleurs
give and share
I am an arbor, a home
I shelter birds and beasts
I breathe their air
they breathe me back
we are one
I live
long
I
fade
mes feuilles tombent
colors change
I am un feu, a blaze
I light up la forêt
I feel le froid
creeping in
I rest
die
brown
I
am
a seed
in the ground
waiting for the sun
