You are in the embrace of Mother Earth
Let the stinking soil corrode your body
Let the boundless darkness devour your sky
You remain silent
Quietly absorbing essence in decay
Exploring upwards alone in the darkness
One day you finally break through the soil
Taking in a deep breath of fresh air
Drinking from the fountain of life with joy
Then wildflowers mock your ugliness
Thistles mock your short stature
You are not distressed, nor are you inferior
You continue to grow outside the memory of all things
Because you know
You will eventually grow into a towering tree
Adorned with colorful clouds!
