Destined to Dawn

It was put deep into the Earth,

Nurtured and nourished it was ,

It worked its way up the dirt for fresh air.

I was happy to see how it was,

And said " One day you will grow big,

To bear the fruits of my toil".

Guided by the rays of its life, it started to grow,

Pushed by the storm and pecked by the crow,

There was lot to come, till its wish came true.

It got all it wanted and all it wished for,

Because it had a life to live and beautiful Life it would be.

It wanted to reach for the sky, which it thought

Was just not too high, because it could see it right there.

Its been a while since it breathed the first time,

And the arms are wide spread now, its growing big.

Covered with the glory of its being,

To tempest and turmoil it did not Deign.

The sky is too high, but it has grown too tall,

Far above the ground,It did extend,

And after a time, when snow descended,

The forest grew timbered and the air blew warm,

And as the last dying leaf kissed goodbye,

The first fruit whispered a bloom.
