Genre: Life, Nature
Secret of a seedling
by Musab Jamal
Seed stage:
Going into the earth’s womb,
Resembling a water drop in a tomb,
Thou heart holds a living being,
Wrapped protected in covering deep,
Whose fate holds great blossom,
A shadowy place for people totter
Budding stage:
Go! My child for you must go!
Prepared and ready to grow,
For ye shall bear the hardest trials,
Freezing spells and heating dire,
Yet ye will endure this all,
Budding happily in fields bowl,
For thee caries the destiny,
Of Green empire spreading testimony!
A plant:
Awake! My Lad for time has come!
Thou shall face the living world,
Embrace nutrition that nature grants,
Musab Jamal
Secret of a Seedling, page 2, and continuing stanza
Grow vigorously in heavenly trance
Attain such greater heights,
Which is your born right!
A Tree:
Boast! For you must boast!
Harder it is to cleave your wooden growth
Time will test by its ordeals,
By storms and hurricanes, your bark real;
For you will witness many millennia,
Hosting forever a great insignia.
