If you pull up a plant
by the roots,
the plant dies.
But if you very gently
push the soil away
until you discover the roots . . .
what you will find
is the seed of passion
that birthed the plant
the ardor for life
the vigor to thrive
the joy to blossom
the zeal to bear fruit.
Wisdom
lies in the seed
of the plant
and in the heart
of the child within.
Be gentle
with the seed
for therein lies your
ardor for life
vigor to thrive
joy to blossom
and zeal to bear fruit.
