I Was the Seed

There was once a seed, small and tiny,
You sowed it in when it was shiny.
You put manure for it to nurture,
All you wanted was for a better future.
Once it had a stem and leaf,
It was growing you felt relief.
Till it was tall you helped it grow,
It grew and grew till it touched the rainbow.
Now that it's roots were stronger than ever,
It decided to take care of you forever.
When you sit below it, tired and cold,
It promises to give you wind, pleasent and cold.
When it is sunny and you need aid,
It promises to provide you with shade.
When there's a thunderstorm or rain,
It promises to soothen your pain.
The seed is now a tree because of you,
This tree will always take care of you.

The Imprisoned Soul

In the castle of flesh and bones, 
Held by the chains of antagonism,
She dreamt of freedom,
For he was who she was yearning.

On the door stood guard arrogance,
"I'm the best, you can't escape" he said,
She denied and he grew stronger,
What fed him ? Her ignorance.
He was defeated when she said,
"Yes you are",
Who was she ? Modesty.

Now who blocked her way was obstinance,
She begged him as he stood tall,
She wasn't ready to pay penance,
He didn't budge, he was tenacity after all.
Who came to her resque was compliance,
To escape, she had to make the call.

Her last nemisis was "Ego the dragon",
"You shall burn in the fire of humility" he said.
She was baffled as he flew higher,
She then said "what a liar!,
If humility was fire, 
You yourself breathe fire".

The battle was now won,
To hold her back there were none,
With clouds she had to run,
Along the everlasting sun.
