Plants



You never yell

You never complain

Even when someone tears leaves of you

You stand strong looking out at the world

You persevere, you never give up

From droughts, blizzards, and many other terrible things

Even when your wilting, leaves browning and falling

No more life to live, degenerating

When no one admires your beautiful looks

You don’t think it’s time to give up, not yet

You send your seeds into the wind

Floating, and floating away 

Swishing up and down, leaving no trace

Then you will fall into the soil

And then know you deserve your

rest.
