A day was blessed
With leaves so green
Yet also cursed
With air to breathe
Somehow it was filled
With poison they call
       gasoline

As what you did
To my lungs so fragile
When it rained
Pouring down agile
Holding light seeds
Filling my insides with
       soil

Time flew past
From then they grew
The beauty would last
And for a moment I knew
Carbon was all I could gasp
Finally realizing the odd
       renew

As a plant, I can take,
But water I lack.
When tears pour down,
It says Zeus did reign.
