Oh sapling who thinks themselves a tree
Do not deceive yourself any longer
Just because you are no longer a seed
Know you must still grow stronger
Do not deceive yourself any longer
Just because you are no longer a seed
Know you must still grow stronger
Yes, you now have roots
But if you try, you can spread them so much further
You're starting to show your fruits
But you must find who your fruits are meant for
It is one of our greatest follies, to think our growing can be one day be done
So grow, grow little sapling. Beyond even the tree you were meant to become.

Another shared poetry challenge with my good friend seashine.footsteps on Instagram, on the theme "growing strong" (I'll link to their interpretation once they have it up)
